Is There A Suggested Medication For Abdominal Migraines?

I am a 34 year old female, with episodes of chronic migraine headaches which present themselves with an onset of what seems to be an epileptic seizure in my abdominals. The stomach involuntarily contracts for a period of 30 to 45 seconds, subsides for a few minutes, and then occurs again until vomiting results. The following day or two I have symptoms of a migraine headaches, vomiting for 12 ro 24 hours, followed by nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and in one instance I had an episode where I could not speak or write. My doctor thinks I have abnormal migraines, however, the symptoms occur three days prior to my menses- and when I am under a great deal of stress. I have been experiencing these abdominal migraines or abdominal epileptic seizures- which ever they are called- for a period of 23 years approximately every cycle. They get worse if I eat dairy, yellow cheese, meat, wheat, sugar, onions, and too much chocolate, or smell chemicals, diesel fuel, or bleach. I have received an endoscopy which came back normal, I was tested for Celiacs disease, and that came back normal. I feel frustrated because I cannot get a definitive answer about this condition. I just want an answer about this condition which with my current insurance, I cannot get the tests necessary to diagnose whatever I have. I would be happy to volunteer for a medical study for Abdominal Epilepsy or Migraines if it could lead to a diagnosis. I think this could help me to lead a more normal life, and possibly treatment for this condition. What is your advice for me, considering this has effected every aspect of my life, family, career and health.

Hello,

If one comes to me with such complaints as yours I suggest to take the following Ayurvedic medicines.

1. Arogyavardini Rasa 1 tablet with warm water three times a day before food.

2. Kamadugha Rasa with Mukta (Preferably of Shree Doothpapeshwar Limited) 1 tablet with warm water three times a day before food.

3. Drakshadi Kashayam 3tsp (15ml) with 3tsp (15ml) of water three times a day after food.

4. Shirashula vajrari Rasa 1 tablet with Drakshadi Kashaya (Item no.3) three times after food.

I would also like to suggest for a considerable dietary regimen as below:

1. Avoid use of caffeine, Bakery, Fermented, oil fried and cocoa products.

2. Increase intake of fruits especially Orange, grapes, fully ripe banana and Musambi.

3. Preferably pure vegetarian diet with lots of fibres and those belonging to cucurbitaceae like ash gourd, bitter gourd, ridged gourd, etc.

I suggest it for a period of one month and then revive the condition.

Now as this is a prescription Ayurvedic medicine and requires regular monitoring I suggest you to take the advice of a local Ayurvedic Physician for proper management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Mahesh T S, Ayurveda Specialist
