And I have chest pain now as a result, which I've never had before :-(

HI all

Has anyone ever managed to identify any reasons or triggers for spasms??

My HM was last October, had spasms a lot afterwards, but they eventually died

down. Then I've had 4 dilatations since, and am due a 5th in May, very

occasional spasms for the past few months but over the last 48hrs I've had 3!!

One bad one in the middle of the night and a couple of smaller ones during the

day. I can't identify any triggers for them right now, my diet is the same, the

only thing that I could suggest is that I'm very tired and very busy at work

(maybe a little stressed).

Anyone got any ideas?

thanks

I think it is different for everybody. Stress was a trigger for me, too, though

it was kind of paradoxical. When things were really hectic and stressful and I

had to work long hours at work, sometimes I wouldn't have spasm attacks at all.

When the stress let up, k-baaam! horrible painful spasm attack. My husband

first noticed this so I don't think I am making it up. It's almost like my body

was holding it all together while it had to and then attacking me when I could

finally relax.

I also notice that when I am under stress I have more manageable NCCP more

frequently than when I am not.

Exactly. Mine do the EXACT same thing. My mom said her migraines were in that

pattern as well. DURING the stressful time, you don't have spasms, but when you

de-stress and relax, all hell breaks loose. Yep, I realized that immediately

when I started having spasms...just find it interesting that my mom's migraines

were the same way.

Hey let's rejoice

My wife told me today that for the first time in 20 years I have a six pack.

Every cloud may have a silver lining. Shame they are going to cut it open next

month!

From someone who gets migraines I can say that is spot on. As soon as the

stressful periods lightens up and you think you can relax-boom-migraine!
