👂 Did you know vestibular migraine is commonly

👂 Did you know vestibular migraine is commonly co-morbid in those with Ménière’s disease? And with Ménière’s disease comes hearing loss. 🤫 I always thought hearing loss would feel like the volume being slowly turned down until sound is gone, but that’s not accurate. Tinnitus (the perception of noise or ringing in the ears) and hyperacusis (when ordinary sounds seem much louder than they should) are common with hearing loss. And there is no off button for the constant noise that sounds like the feedback you hear through speakers when a microphone is too close. ✈️ A friend with Ménière’s disease described it as having a phone conversation, on an airport runway, next to a jet taking off and I agree! 🚁 Anyone else have both vestibular migraine and Ménière’s disease? What’s your experience? Let us know below.

⚡️ Hemiplegic migraine is an under discussed,

⚡️ Hemiplegic migraine is an under discussed, complex migraine variant that mimics a stroke or seizure. It’s very important to receive a diagnosis for HM to receive proper treatment. For instance, triptans are best avoided during the aura phase of HM. ⚡️ Because HM is so rare and mimics other disease, seek medical attention immediately if you experience any of the above symptoms. ⚡️ Amanda Ingrassia @justbreathemia , the Editor in Chief of My Chronic Brain, shared her hemiplegic migraine experience in our most recent article post. See <link in bio> to learn more. ⚡️ Have you been diagnosed with hemiplegic migraine? How long did it take you to get diagnosed? Is there something we missed on our graphic that you think others should know? Please share you experience below. ——————————

🍗 Are you beginning or have you re-committed to

🍗 Are you beginning or have you re-committed to a migraine elimination diet? Here are a few tips we hope help! 🥬 First eliminate all of the common triggers listed on the diet you select. Don’t try to avoid a few random foods you think “could be” a trigger. That’s called an avoidance diet vs an elimination diet & they’re typically not successful. 🌽 Follow your diet for at least four months or until you reach baseline. If you’re experiencing chronic symptoms it can take much longer to reach baseline. Many with chronic vestibular migraine dizziness report needing much longer...around 9 months to one year mark.
🌶 Expect to make some mistakes along the way. Mistakes don’t mean throwing in the towel. Just get back on the horse and go again. 😉 🍔 Do your best to keep healthy perspective. Try not to develop fears around foods on the no list. Eliminating common triggers does NOT mean these foods are dangerous or will be a personal trigger for you. 🫑 Once you reach baseline, you’re ready to start reintroducing foods to test them as personal triggers for you. To do this start with the foods you miss the most. Eat that food everyday for five days. 5 days is important because tolerance of a dietary trigger will vary from day to day depending on the amount of “other” triggers happening such as hormone fluctuations or weather systems rolling through. Time of day may be a factor as well. When I began introducing foods I introduced just one a week and kept a diary to help track responses. 🍅 Another thing to note is the age of the foods you eat. You may be able to tolerate cheeses aged less than three months, but not older cheeses or bananas and avocado with a bit of green, but not once they show browning. 🍷 If you reintroduce alcohol, vodka and white wine seem to be less risky than other choices. 🫐 Most importantly remember an elimination diet is not forever. It’s designed to help you identify whether or not you have any personal food triggers. Migraine triggers tend to rise and fall. We can be REALLY sensitive one day and get away with things another so plan to be flexible and adjust your compliance according to your personal needs. 🍉 Continued in comments...

🍔 Let’s talk about diets that can help migrai

🍔 Let’s talk about diets that can help migraine. ✨ Heal Your Headache & Charleston: 🍐🍑🍗🍞🥦🥚🥩 🍔 We talk about the Heal Your Headache diet a lot. It is a low tyramine and lowish histamine diet. Following this diet can help our brains calm down and let our preventives work better. Many of us have had great success on this diet. We highly recommend it and are happy to help with ideas, tip and tricks for helping anyone who chooses to try it be more successful. Charleston is very similar, but a bit more restrictive. Keto: 🍗🥑🥦🥚🧀🥓🥩 🍔 We also talk about the Ketogenic diet which has become more popular in the last 5-10 years. This diet has many foods available that are avoided on the HYH diet. While this can be confusing, the keto diet uses ketones as fuel instead of glucose, which is what your body uses when your diet has sugar and grains in it. These ketones sort of bathe the brain and quiet it down. These ketones make it so that many of us can eat foods not typically allowed on the HYH diet (avocado, bacon, cheese, sour cream etc.) ✨ 🍔 The new year often inspires many of us to recommit to a diet or to commit for the first time. Have you tried a migraine diet? Which one did you try and how did it work for you? Let us know below. ——————————

⚡️We are all unicorns. 🦄 Not everyone with migraine has the same triggers, but there are many common offenders that can spark an attack in those with migraine disease. Figuring out your personal triggers can help you to reduce the frequency, severity or intensity of your attacks. ⚡️You can do this by keeping a migraine journal, tracking your attacks in an app or starting an elimination diet. ⚡️What are your most troubling triggers? Did we miss yours on our list? Please let us know below.
