I
actually went in to see the chiropractor for a stiff back.
Dr. Sam and I were discussing the medication I was taking and I
mentioned Migraine pills. I had
been having headaches 3-4 times per week with an average of 1-2 of those
headaches being really severe. I had been
having these problems for a couple of years. A local doctor had prescribed 2 different meds that I took
at the onset of the headaches. Dr.
Sam discussed in detail the characteristics that lead to headaches or
migraines - with food allergies
leading the way. We discussed that
diet soda could be causing my problems.
Aspartame is a main ingredient in diet soda and after laying off diet
soda for a couple of weeks the frequency of my headaches declined, to the count
of maybe 1-2 per week on a bad week.
I really appreciate the time Dr. Yoder took explaining the possible link
between food allergies, mainly Aspartame and my headaches. He really goes above & beyond to
find answers to what is actually causing the problem.
