I've suffered from migraines for many years and I have to be reasonably truthful about what I do or don't do in order to forestall an attack. For instance if I'm in a meeting, I have to sit with my back to the window otherwise the glare of the sun against the window can trigger an attack. I'm teetotal because drinking alcohol is a sure-fire way to make me ill. I don't eat bananas, I avoid excessively salty food, I try to ensure that I get in the middle of 7 to 8 hours sleep a night .... The list goes on and on.

One of the main things, however, that triggers a migraine is practice - but of policy I can't avoid doing that! It's worse in the summer because it's hot and the sunlight is very bright. We went for a long walk with the dog yesterday evening and I was Ok for the first hour. But then we started walking with the sun in our eyes, and within a few minutes I knew that an strike was iminent. By the time I got home, my head was hurting, my eyes were hurting, my chest felt tight and I was sensitive to smells.
Nevertheless, I made dinner. What I'd rather do when I have a migraine is sit down, ignore every person and everything, and sleep. However, I get migraines so often that I would just be a recluse! Instead I rely on my designate migraine tablets, which are a god-send. They are evil dinky things: they growth your risk of heart strike and stroke and the side-effects are quite severe, but they do stop an strike if I take one soon after I feel it arrival on.
