i have migraines with auras sometimes but i am always sensitive to lights and sound. i have found that flouresent lighting to also be a trigger. i always seem to get a migraine if i am at a docs office to long. strong smells have always given me a migraine. i am going to try a gluten free and sugar free diet to see if what i am eating is causing the migrianes. i have tried preventive meds and have found no relief as yet although i have started a new one i have not been on it long enough to know if it will help. i have very long hair that i wear up in a loose bun but a friend suggested that i cut my hair that it may also be causing migraines. i am not comfortable with cutting my hair and am just wondering if anyone that has chronic migraines has been given the advice to cut their hair by a doc. my doctors have not suggested this but i have not gotten a good response from my neurologist. i would like to change doctors but i am having a hard time finding one that will take my case.
what are the effects of an migraine
