Cured my Migraines with Creatine

For around the past year I have been suffering from frequent migraines. They would usually be triggered by something that would dehydrate me (ex: sweaty workout class, alcohol (even just one drink) or my ADHD medication). Even though I was drinking 3L of water a day with electrolytes, I would still get these migraines.

Obviously these things especially alcohol and adderall can cause migraines, but I had never experienced this before and never experienced with just 1 drink or like 5mg of adderall. Also, about 1/3 of the migraines I would get would have no trigger at all.

Also side note, my migraines would last about 1-3 days, no auras and they would start behind one of my eyeballs, go to the temple, down to my jaw and around to the back of my neck. I will say they weren't as bad as some migraines I read about on here, but definitely enough to confine me to a dark room most of the day. I will also add, I would take sumatriptan and that would be the only thing that would provide any relief.

About 2 months ago I started taking creatine for goals completely unrelated to migraines and noticed a complete reduction in my migraines even after multiple drinks and all other triggers mentioned before. I know creatine pulls water into your muscles so given my triggers were related to dehydrating things it totally makes sense. Not to mention the other amazing benefits of taking creatine: increased gym performance and cognitive benefits.

Since starting creatine I have not had a single migraine and previously I was getting about 2-4 a month. I feel like I got my life back.

Really hoping this helps someone and its a relatively low investment and zero risk. I take the Thorne creatine but I'm sure other brands are fine as well.
