    This is a very helpful video. I wish I had found a doctor like you years ago. Here in the UK, you get a 10 minute consultation with a GP, who doesn't have the time, or the training to find the cause of your problem. What you typically get is a drug to suppress the symptoms. Integrative medicine is a far more effective approach for chronic and lifestyle related conditions. I started to get episodic migraines in 2011. Then in 2018, my migraines become chronic, in fact almost daily. My doctor prescribed the usual drugs which were largely ineffective,. Last year, I began to experience troublesome GI symptoms, and a blood test and biopsy showed that I have coeliac disease. It turns out that coeliacs often suffer from migraine. I began a gluten free diet a month ago, and I'm hoping that, in time, this will relieve my migraines. Ironically, my hobby was bread making, and visiting artisan bakeries!

    Do you know much about use of the tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) drugs? Both Nortriptyline and Imipramine have reduced my head pain by about 50%, but unfortunately there is still the side effect of feeling a little drowsy at times on these medications. I wish I didn’t have to use these medications because I worry if they are safe longterm. According to what I’ve read they should be safe, but it’s still the only two meds I have found that seem to help my headaches some. Tylenol or Ibuprofen doesn’t do anything.
