Heather Chandler is a facebook friend of mine and a migraine sufferer. Recently, she told me that she also found a way to master her migraines without taking pills and I asked her to share her story with us.
Heather is this true, are you really migraine-free?
Yes I did get rid of my migraines.
How long have you been without a migraine?
Just hit 6 months without any. Kind of stumbled upon the solution by accident. Not sure if it’ll help everyone, but have found it works for most migraine sufferers I’ve talked to.
Tell us how you did it.
My cousin was telling me how she got rid of her migraines by drinking 4 oz. of ginger ale every night before bed. I thought it was odd and there was no way it could work. I tried everything I could think of to get rid of mine and nothing seem to work. Or it would work for a little while and then I’d go right back to page one.
So one day I get a really bad migraine. I’m starting to go lay down in a dark room with a towel over my eyes when I remember what my cousin told me. Couldn’t hurt to try, I thought. It was safe and natural, unlike taking medicines. Worst that could happen was that it didn’t work and I’d right where I was. I drank a little bit and my headache started to go away! I couldn’t believe it.
Earlier in the year, I had found out that I have “silent” acid reflux in my sleep. I started to realize that when I start feeling bad just before the migraine hits was just my stomach beginning to get upset. Even when I felt one coming on, all I had to do was setlle my stomach, either with ginger ale, ginger tea, ginger candy, TUMS, anti-nausea medicine, and my migraine would go away.
So a ginger ale a day keeps migraines away?
Now I don’t even have to drink ginger ale everyday, just every few days. And all of my triggers – weather, stress, not eating on time (had to eat every 6 hours or I got a migraine before) have completely vanished.
Wow, that’s inspiring, can I post your comments on my blog?
So yeah, I’d love to share it! My goal all along was to rid migraines from myself and then help others do the same. They are a horrible thing to suffer from.
Thank you very much Heather. I hope this will inspire others to take heart and try something new. If it worked for Heather it might work for you (and ginger ale has no side effects). Has anyone else tried ginger ale to help with migraines? Let us know by leaving a comment in the comment box below.
