Hello Everyone,

I had an attack last night that began with a migraine headache ,then nausea,then came real close to throwing up, then had D. Does anyone else get headaches and nausea prior to an attack. I don't always get attacks like this but sometimes I do. And when I do I am usually sick the following day. Last night I went to sleep with the headache and woke up with it. And I have had slight nausea all day.

Christie,

I've never had those symptoms. I just wanted to say, "Great pic!"

Christie,

I am sorry that you are feeling bad. I get migraines often and they usually last 3 days for me. I find many times when I have a migraine I just feel bad all over, which can include a stomach ache and D.

When I am having an attack because of something I have eaten I don't usually get a headache before. Many times I will have an upset stomach though.

Hope you are feeling better.

Yeh! I get migraines alot but it is not always followed by an attack. But somehow I just know when it is going to be followed by an attack and I dread it. I am still feeling iffy today.

Thanks! I am not sure which one you saw I have been switching between 3 different ones trying to figure out which one is the least blurry. I think I will stick with the one I have up now.

Sorry you are having a tough time. I don't get migraines but I know people who do and they say nausea is part of the migraine. Not usually "D" though. Could you have had a migraine & also a reaction to something you ate that triggered IBS, too? Boy, what a double whammy!!!

Are you on any meds for the migraines?

I get nausea a lot. Usually brought on by stress and after a panic attack I am nauseous the whole next day. UGH!!!
I take pepto bismol and that does help settle my tummy a little. I got some ginger capsules that I am going to try sometime when I get the courage.... I have fear of trying anything new.

BTW, love your pic.

Feel better soon

Hey Barbie,

I am not on meds for the migraines b/c I am reluctant to ingest anymore pills then I already am. I don't think anything I ate set off the attack. The migraines start and then everything else usually follows. I am feeling fairly normal this evening, so thank God that it has ended.

I was nauseous the other day and tried some ginger tea but couldn't stomache it. Where do you get ginger capsules? I heard Ginger works well for nausea but I can't do the tea, so maybe capsules are the ticket. But I guess that will be another pill to digest.

Thank You!

I got the ginger capsules at the Health Food Store. But, they are still sitting in the cabinet because I'm scared to take them!! Have you ever tried Pepto Bismol? I know it tastes yucky but it does help me some with the nausea. You can buy it in tablets, too.

Happy you are feeling better today.
