[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2250420, member: 93179"] I used to suffer from chronic "common" non-aura excruciatingly painful migraines long before I ever had diabetes, and since being diagnosed six years ago and starting low carbing this has actually more or less stopped them completely. (Most of mine were hormone or stress related but I had a few trigger foods as well. And regarding cheese - blue cheese was one of my foody migraine triggers - but i can eat some now! ) Something I was told early on as a migraine sufferer was not to go too long without eating (though I was never a regular breakfast eater!) and at one point about 30 years ago I had a few [URL='https://www.migrainetrust.org/about-migraine/trigger-fa'][B]migraine related hypos[/B][/URL] - completely unrelated to diabetes and I never knew what they actually were until very recently, but they[I] were[/I] related to not having eaten for a while. If you do a forum search there have been several discussions where other (ex)migraine sufferers have had similar experiences with low carb putting an end to migraines. So my suggestion would be to carry on with low carbing, but [B]not together with calorie restriction, [/B] and perhaps be a little cautious when fasting. [/QUOTE]
