Triggers, Treatments And Trying To Plan

The quality of life is the thing most people cherish more than the length of life; if the quality is good then the length can be suffered as long as the time spent is adequate. Now migraines have the specific ability to suck the life out of you if you are not willing to make some key lifestyle changes. One lifestyle change that should be made is to plan in advance for the onset of a migraine episode. This means avoid the place, activities, foods and other outside factors that can cause your migraine to occur. This also means to utilize a migraine treatment option on a regular basis so that the effectiveness of the treatment can be at its peak. Now along with planning, you also need to learn to accept change. This is a concept that many migraine sufferers have a hard time with because migraines can debilitate the sufferer for several hours if not days cause them to miss out on life. Yet if they focus on the negative instead of positively using a treatment effectively, they can miss out on more and cause greater issues for themselves.

Two Opposite Trigger Points

There are many trigger of the migraine process but two come to mind right now; they are sleep depravity and weather changes. Who knew that sleep was so valuable?

If you have ever suffered from a severe migraine attack you know the amount of pain and limitation one can have on an individual and that sleep is difficult in the midst of a migraine attack. Taking the time to perfect snoozing habits will help reduce the effect migraines can have on you. I suffer from weather triggered migraine headaches and right now, we want to briefly go over the role weather can play on migraines occurrences. Changes in the weather such as the ones mentioned below are thought to create a chemical reaction in the brain that sets the serotonin levels off balance bringing about a painful migraine headache. Chronic migraine sufferers often note an increase in migraine activity during weather and climate changes. Research on the weather and its direct influence on migraines is still under research, therefore it is suggested that migraine sufferers keep a headache journal noting which weather changes bring on migraine headaches and symptoms. Weather related migraines are often noticed when the following changes occur:

¨      Mostly Bright Sunshiny Days

¨      High Humid Air

¨      Barometric Changes

¨      Windy weather can trigger migraines due to the wind changing the pressure in the ears

¨      Hot and Cold weather changes

¨      Rainy Weather

¨      Dry Air
