adex and migraines

[dec11]

anyone else noticed a link here? since starting adex several weeks ago ive been getting alot of migraines. i know they can strike out of the blue and be persistant but i havent had them in an age and my diet has been consistent and unchanging (they are usually 99% diet related). just strange that im getting them now after starting the adex.

cheers

yeah, plenty of water mate. ive been taking migraines for so long i can usually pinpoint the cause of triggers and adex is the odd one out atm.

[PitMaster]

I really don't know enough about this dec..But could u drop the adex for a different inhibitor. Have you seen this as a pattern every time u take Adex? You have also been under a lot of stress lately...

[dec11]

Ive been having the migraines since b4 recent upsets mate. Dont want 2 drop adex as its doin a good job. I knw migraines are random in their nature but just wondered if any1 had a similar effect

[Ashop]

How much and how often are you taking it?

[dec11]

.5mgs eod

[gp170]

I dont have a reason why but I am on Adex 1mg eod and I also have had a small headache. Ive been on for about 2 weeks and had a minor head ache the other day no where near a migraine but a headache none the less. Also I never get headaches and my diet is clean and consistant as well. Ill let you know if I get another and if its any worse.

I found this on Drugs.com

my mother suffered them badly aswell. i can lose my vision completely for up to 20-30mins ( was ever so slightly dangerous whilst riding a motorbike once!!), flashing lights, zigzag lines, sometimes no headache and other times serious headaches

yeah, id pref stane but can only get adex locally. there is a possibility its nothing to do with the adex as migraine can be very random, ive gone 2yrs without one before like.

Exactly what happens to me, xept my dad was the one who suffered from them. how often do u get them with adex and on ur cycle? did u stop getting them after puberty? what about too much time on the computer or watching tv or anything electronic, does that affect you?

see, its hard to fathom for me as they are so random. bright brake lights on cars would be a trigger for me, i spend alot of time online so i dont know if i can blame monitor/tv.

been getting em since 18 and they seemed to have stopped at 28 (same as my mother) but then restarted at 30 (strangely, same for my mother again!) and id get them maybe once or twice a year since then, but since starting the adex ive got around 7-8 in two weeks.

my brother and sister have never had them. i will note that from 18-30 i could have had attacks that went on for weeks and put me off work a good few times.

one deca cycle left me with blinding headaches but havent had trouble on any other cycle

i have an excellent med for them so not suffering any pain or the accompanying mood swings associated with severe migraine, just was wondering if the adex gave the same effect to any other sufferers

yea im at the middle stage right now lol, i get them few times a year usually but they only last 30 minutes, but im out for the whole day lol.

when i was 16 id get them every 2 weeks, then it slowed down and at 17 i rarley get them more than once every 2 months.

One time i pulled an alnighter with my friends back in tha HAlo 2 days and i got the migranes every day for the next 4 days. it was horrible, then i went to a neurologist and he explained what sciindillating scotomas were and i said i had them. just read the wikipedia page on them and research them there u get good insight and the more you know the better.

i honestly think they have to do with hormone levels, im not sure which one is the cause but there are many triggers.
