T'Mahk Too - Comments on It used to be ... http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000595.html Back when I was a caffeine addict, I assumed all my headaches were caffeine related. I always felt like I was walking a tightrope, feeding the addiction to keep away the headaches, but not wanting to feed it too much... en-gb Fri, 02 Feb 2007 09:59:30 -0500 Fri, 11 Mar 2011 11:29:12 -0500 http://www.movabletype.org/?v=4.21-en kim@andfam.net 180 By dale Not drinking enough water? Not getting enough sleep? You've also stopped eating chocolate and other "contaminates". Maybe you're suffering withdrawals from that. So many possibilities. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000595.html#c32741 32741:595@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Not drinking enough water?

Not getting enough sleep?

So many possibilities.

Chocolate has GOOD things too....it is chock full of antioxidants and it releases chemicals that make you feel like you are in love! That can especially be helpful when your kids are giving you those headaches. On the other hand, that means there is more for me. Never mind! Continue on and feel free to pass any unwanted chocolate my way.... :) http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000595.html#c32758 32758:595@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Wait...no chocolate either???

He says that you get a 'rebound' headache sometimes after quitting Ibuprofen, and that the monthly hormones are another 'trigger' for headaches/migraines. Other triggers for me are bright light, flickering light, lack of sleep, inconsistent sleep, too much or too little tea (caffiene in coffee doesn't affect me, but I think tea does), and poor eating (too many salts/sweets.) I could easily believe that switching to vegan would throw your system off and make you more supceptible to headaches... ;o/ I've got one now, recovering from the flu.

Moved the computer screen to a different place on the desk? Sitting in a new chair? Could be allergies, too, if the headache centers above the eyebrows. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000595.html#c33142 33142:595@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Feel around the soft tissues on your neck.
