I’ve only recently realized that I am STARVING as I recover from a migraine. I’ve been able to pay closer attention over the past month and a half. I tend to make a cup of caffeinated tea (whatever I’m in the mood for) and I definitely crave salty foods, sugary food, and/or comfort food either before or after a migraine. I always hydrate really well each day, but something about the colder weather makes me drink a lot more hot tea. After a certain time each day, I have to cut all caffeine off because it will make me bounce off the walls and it always screws up my sleep patterns. In general, my caffeine intake is low to damn near nonexistent. I’m definitely hurting like hell if I’m reaching for caffeine.

Do you follow any of these methods for post-migraine recovery?
