[QUOTE="BBTempleN, post: 2306930, member: 530332"] Thanks for your suggestions. I do think they are are build up of many things but for me I feel main triggers are the low blood sugar, followed by hormones (apparently when they fluctuate) and them possibly sleep and stress and possibly weather pressure changes. I avoid citrus to especially any concentrated juice as think its the oil and pulp rather than just the juice that maybe I can't tolerate well. [B]How do people cope with exercise, [/B]as I see it mentioned on here and heard before that some cannot exercise with migraine. I never really thought how this affected me before until recently. If I go for an early dog walk with my mum, I generally get a migraine, even if I have breakfast before I go or take bits with me, usually and apple! I also do yoga and the Thursday class is always challenging and gets the heart racing and lasts an hour. I usually have dinner straight after, a chicken tray bake for example which replenishes me but sometimes I've felt like my energy reserves had hit rock bottom and had to sit on the sofa for the rest of the night being unable to move for fear I would flake out.
