Fluid retention before a migraine ?

Question:

I seem to get swelling in my lower legs and feet a day or so before a migraine , any one else notice this?

Answers:
Erm.... that's not very good. If you are taking any form of steroid; that includes oral contraceptive, hormone replacement therapy, epilepsy medication etc. make a visit to your GP. Your migraines could be hormone related - noticed whether it's at certain times of the month? It could also be a food allergy - make a diary of what you've been eating, and notice whether you have any puffiness around your face, especially under the chin, feel bloated, constipated, moody, depressed - this reaction could happen up to 4 days after you've eaten your trigger food - mine is tomato, and I suffer for 3 days.
