WHAT ARE THE MOST POWERFUL MIGRAINE TRIGGERS? RESULTS OF A RECENT STUDY

On this episode of Point/Counterpoint, Dr. Paynter and I talk about the results of a recent study about migraine triggers and protectors that was based on data entered into an app called "Curelator," which many of you may have used. The results are thought-provoking! Here's a link to the study: pubmed.ncbi.nl...
The study found that the most powerful migraine trigger was neck pain, which resonates with my own personal experience and that's why I teach migraine-specific yoga to my students as a tool for reducing headaches. You can learn more here: migraineclass....

★☆★ ABOUT DR. AMELIA SCOTT BARRETT ★☆★
After more than 20 years as a Stanford-trained Neurologist, I'm seeing a big problem out there. So many people with migraines are "powering through...". Gotta get the kids to soccer? Take some ibuprofen. Work deadline coming up? Pull out the prescription meds. I'm not judging ~ I totally get it, because I've done those things too. The problem is that when you get to the point where you're having 10 or more headache days a month, then your brain starts to physically change. It's kind of like laying down train tracks that make it easier for the "migraine train" to run through your head.
Instead of powering through, we need to listen to the pain signals and figure out to help the brain actually heal. Does the brain need different nutrients? Do we need to remove toxins? Rewire to the parasympathetic state of healing? We can use modern science to figure out exactly what we need in order to heal, and then we can monitor our bodies with devices to be sure we are making that happen.
Curious? Good! Join me for our Masterclass so I can explain it in more detail!

Wow, such great insight! I'm 63 and have suffered with migraines since I was 10 yrs old! I figured out I was suffering from a migraine or recovering from one 25 days a month! I found a nerve stimulator program in Dallas. I went for a trial of an external nerve stim and returned to have it implanted. There is a battery pack in my chest and wires running up the back of my head to my temples and forehead. I rarely have migraines now! I would highly suggest this procedure for your patients with chronic migraine. Cheers! Jill

Hi Jill thanks so much for sharing! I'm so happy to hear that you've found something that works for you!

[@kellyhayescrook7479]

So many thoughts too.

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

Welcome to the club of overthinkers! We have snacks and endless debates in our heads.

[@marykaylemaywaugh8435]

So I’ve always been told (20 years of migraines) that it can be 72 hours for trigger reaction. So because you didn’t get a headache “that day” doesn’t seem totally accurate

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

I think it depends on how you're using the word... yes, if you have a food sensitivity, as opposed to a food allergy, the reaction can be delayed. Many people use the word "trigger" to describe something like a barometric pressure change or a glass of red wine, where you get a migraine within a few hours.

I just subscribed, I hope this ain’t a silly question, but what about teeth grinding or grinding the teeth, which I do a lot anything to do with headaches. Also, I’m not good at writing so forgive me on that please?

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

Not a silly question at all! Definitely, teeth grinding is a sign of chronic low-grade muscle stress... download my free eBool "The Stress Detector" here: migrainereliefcode.com/stress-detector

@@ameliascottbarrettmd thanks for finding the time really appreciate your reply thanks 🙏🏿

[@bruceshafer6911]

I did the eye test and got neuro-lenses and it did nothing to help my migraines

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

There must be another problem going on under the surface. Check out migraineclass.com for more possibilities.

[@julielighton2751]

Binocular vision dysfunction is the formal name of the eye misalignment discussed in the video.

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

Yes! Thanks Julie!

[@andreaza4986]

Thank you. I cannot take these migraines anymore!!!

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

Yep, they can be horrible.

[@CinnamonForest-m7k]

Obviously the doc doesn't have migraines, caffeine is awful for my migraines...

[@phoenixaz8431]

Wrong. Biochemical individuality.

[@ameliascottbarrettmd]

I do, actually. So I do speak from experience, from my heart. But it is true that migraines aren't the same for everybody, so your experience and mine could be different.
