YouTube Clip of the Week: Identifying Migraine Triggers
Since I keep banging on about how important it is to keep a headache journal, you might want a quick review of just what you’re supposed to write in the journal. This video is quite helpful. Keep in mind that it’s a guide and not Gospel. You don’t have to follow it’s suggestions exactly. For example, you can get a journal with lined paper rather than the blank paged version shown.
Also, I have no idea why it’s flanked by a bunch of sex-related videos. I see they are all put out by Illumistream (which sounds suspisciously close to Illuminati, doesn’t it?)
Then again, sex and headches just seem to go together, don’t they? Just thinking about sex can give many a headache. Any coincidence that this tip went onto YouTube of Valentine’s Day? Anyway, if you watch this on YouTube instead of here, try to ignore the thumbnail images of sexy couples groping and just concentrate on the Headache Journal video.
Since we don’t know what exactly causes migraines (despite what the doctor in the bright white coat says in the tape), we do know that if you are observant and keep a headche journal, you often can avoid some of the most common triggers unique to you. Hope this helps and have a pain free weekend.
