My family experience with migraines seems to be similar to other

posters. Our final understanding was that food allergies is a major

reason for the pain. We are now cautious and rotate foods 5 days

apart from each other. Some foods were eliminated completely, and

some we have only on big holidays. It's made an enormous difference.

We've also added organic vege. juice, raw vege. salad, organic

fermented foods (for probiotics). There's a huge positive difference

for all of us.

Hi,

 

I have treated many people with acupuncture and herbal medicine for migraine

headaches with very good results. There are many possible factors to consider

in this situation so there is not one answer for all people but I think you

should be able to get considerable help. If you say where you are located maybe

someone in the group can give you a referral. If you look yourself ask if they

have experience with your problem.

 

Good Luck and thank your doctor for a good advise.

Hi Sheila,

 

Hopefully your husband was able to avail of the therapy that is

recommended for post-op bypass patients. If not then ask you Medical

Doctor about this.

 

Many things can cause migraine headaches. Yes, it could be a sign or

hypertension so it might be a good idea to get one of thos home

blood pressure machines with the digital read out. Even though his

arteries might be presently clear, the diet or genes that caused

the plaque build up might not have changed.

 

They should have provided a diet following the surgery. If they

didn't I would consider another doctor. The internet is a secondary

tool for information. Your doctor should be the primary, and if

he/she isn't doing the job it is time to shop around for one who

will.

 

Of course you need to limit his sodium intake. He should not be

eating any processed foods as they hide massive ammounts of salt

that is listed in the fine print. Some other foods that have been

identified as migraine triggers are chocolate, cheese, coffee, nuts,

and almost anything high in simple carbs (sugars).

 

Anyway good luck and you really need to direct these questions to

his PCP or cardiologist first then ask the group again after you

understand his directions. This is a very serious health condition,

but it also very common and many people experience a remarkable

improvement in their lifestyle following the surgery.

 

I would also ask what other medicines he is currently taking.

Sometime they prescribe an immunosuppresent to keep the body from

trying to reject the stint. These medicines can cause headaches and

fatigue as you described in your message.
