Coffee is such a weird thing. 2 days ago I had a migraine and usually, it's a bad idea for me to have a coffee during. And yet, on this day, I tried it and it actually cleared the migraine. So confusing 😊

Oh interesting. This is the first time it's ever worked. All the times in the past it just turbo charged my migraine.

For some people, drinking a double espresso at the onset of a migraine kills it. But you have to get it at the right time. It’s never worked for me.

😆 That's smart from your son haha! That's super interesting tho. I'm gonna have to do more research on caffeine and migraines. I'd always assumed they don't go.

My son would get migraines a lot when he was around 12. Doc said immediately have can of Coke when he can feel one! Something about the caffeine helping reduce blood vessel size. It did seem to help, but it felt like an excuse half the time😆

I don’t have an explanation for your coffee cure but if you get migraines often, it may be worth to try a magnesium supplement (e.g. magnesium citrate). There are lots of medical literature describing the role of magnesium in migraine prevention.
