Migraines and Me
I was eleven when I got my first migraine.
This is my story about migraines and me.
C H A P T E R 12
This month I want to make you all aware that I don’t know everything about
migraines, I would love to, but I’m not medically trained and certainly not an expert.
I offer advice gained from my personal experience but I sure hope people don’t
just listen to what I’m saying and ignore all the other opinions and perspectives.
The moral of my story this month is... DON’T GIVE UP!
If I can’t help fix your migraines, please help
me to help others. I take all your comments
onboard, I love to hear from you. It took me
almost 10 years to find out what made me so
unwell and you know what, it was worth it if I
can help others. I know people of all ages that
have just begun to suffer and they are having
awful (in my opinion) advice given to them. We
need to all work together to fix this and find out
why so many people suffer and try and help
them!
There is an answer to everything, whether it’s a
simple or super-complicated one. Myself, I feel
strongly that gluten is
the main reason why
I have suffered. You
may be completely
different, so please
keep working hard to
figure it out, hopefully
you will in the future!
My sister is a professionally trained chef and
currently has her own business RACHEL’S
CREATIVE COOKING. She teaches children
cookery lessons in local primary schools
giving them skills on basic cooking, healthy
eating, sharing and so many more things! I find
it fascinating how many kids have allergies,
and the variety of things they are allergic or
intolerant to; my sister is intolerant to apples!
It really shows how much a diet can affect your
health so it is super important to pay attention
to this: A simple allergy test could make a
huge positive change to your life! Often the
NHS do not offer this service so I recommend
arranging it yourself.
It can be expensive
but what price do
you put on fixing
your migraines? I
visited Emily Lamont,
Nutritional Therapist,

In the meantime, did anyone bake my favourite healthy chocolate cake?
I would love to see photos! You can find the recipe on my facebook page
