I do in fact suffer from migraines, and am taking Imitrex 50mg which usually helps. But the incidents I'm speaking of include a migraine, but are a total body illness, just like the flu or a hangover (with a migraine). Do you think a migraine in itself could make me this sick?
I have sinusitis (I think that's what the doc told me) and allergies, and I had a deviated septum for which I had surgery, although I'm not convinced the surgery was 100% successful, since my sinuses aren't much better, and if I feel my septum with my fingers it feels very curved, not straight.
I also forgot to mention that I have acid reflux which makes me feel pretty crummy sometimes, and I wonder if certain foods trigger acid reflux, which triggers a migraine. At times, I'll eat dinner, and 5 min. later, my nose completely blocks up solid, and a migraine usually follows within 1 hour. This self diagnosis is driving me nuts, but I can't find a doctor to take it seriously.
