I'm a young, vivacious woman with terrible health. I'd like to blame genetics and situations beyond my control for this, but I know it is partly my fault. I decided I was sick of feeling like "twenty five is the new fifty two," so I changed my diet and lifestyle to help fix my declining health. No one my age should have a blood pressure of 190/110. This is where I write about it.

I’ve been nursing a migraine since this morning. I was hoping the diet change would make them stop, but I guess it just means they are caused by something else. Great.
I feel your pain, cupcake.
I had chronic migraines for awhile after my car accident. So bad, that I would just lay in the dark with an ice pack on my head and pray for death!
I was put on a medication to help prevent them, and I haven’t had one for months. The med is pretty hardcore though, and has some crazy side effects that take getting used to. Dizziness, Memory Loss…
One of the reasons I went back to being Vegan was in hopes a “cleaner” diet would help balance out these side effects, and I feel like it has.
Feel better!
