| Comment | I didn't really get migraines until I went to Uni, then I seemed to get them all the time. Like you said, it would just wipe me out for the day, and this would happen multiple times a week meaning I basically was looking at having to re-do 3rd year.
I went to GP repeatedly, who originally fobbed me off, but after a while referred me to a specialist. That didn't really get me anywhere. More advice about painkillers etc but I was still getting migraines about 3 times a week.
Anyways, eventually my dentist noticed that my jaw muscles were getting really strong, and it turned out I had bruxism. I basically had overworked my TMJ muscles / joint and this was exacerbated with uni stress. So now I have a mouth guard to wear at night and I can't even remember the last time I had a migraine. |
