Please can anyone help my partner age 59 has been suffering migraines and awful headaches after pills and endless visits to doctor and hospitals he now wonders if taking sugar also strenuous exercise can be the cause it has totally made his life hell , please does anyone know anything at all to help thank you .
Strenuous exercise can certainly bring on headaches. What does the GP say, what medication is he on? Do they come at particular times, e.g. weekends rather than in the week?
Migraine is a symptom. There can be various causes. An intolerance of sugar can cause problems - he should try excluding it from his diet for a week to see if that improves matters. (Read those labels, some savoury processed foods contain high levels of sugar).
The most common cause, especially among computer users, is a minor neck injury. Try ice on the back of the neck (yes I know that's not where it hurts, humour me!). If that helps, see a chiropractor.
My wife excluded cows milk and all related dairy products, including anything which may have milk in it like pastry, bread, cakes. read the information on the labels. Dont eat anything which may have milk/lactose like suaces on food in a restuarant.
