Life with Migraines
Due to genes passed down from my grandmother and my mother, I suffer from migraines just like them. My triggers range from certain foods, such as Brazilian nuts and also lately certain beers :( , to the usual stuff such as stress. When I'm on holiday my migraines will decrease significantly. Times like now I will most definitely have at least one migraine a week that almost puts me out for a day.
As I'm writing this post I'm sitting with a migraine. Migraines are a type of headache that is situated on one side of your head and can be accompanied by nausea and light sensitivity. Mine starts in my neck. When my neck goes stiff on the one side I know that hell is on the way. I have also driven with sunglasses at night as it feels that everyone is driving with their brights on.
The thing about migraines are that they make you very desperate for remedies and just about anything to work. My aunt has a few health issues and thanks to her my family now uses stuff like cannabis oil, and from this coming week, we are going to try out Scenar therapy. From what I understand, it is a machine that is, amongst others, used by the Russian astronauts and it stimulates your body into regulating any abnormalities to heal itself. More on Scenar therapy here.
I must admit that I'm very excited to be using this great technology. Here's to holding thumbs that it works. I will be posting a review about it afterwards and how I feel.

STOPWould be good to hear the feedback on the Scenar therapy. Hope you migraine problem is sorted out @maretha94
Welcome @maretha94 I can relate to your story since my son, now in his mid thirties has suffered since puberty and is currently testing canna oil to see if it will help. Keep us posted on your findings since ongoing suffering with migraines is not fun. Have a great week.
