Mold & Migraines

jodim

Has anyone found mold to be a trigger?? I believe there is mold in the walls at my work place right by my desk & that it may be the trigger of some of my migraines. I haven't brought it up out of fear (which I am realizing dictates way too much of my life)but feel I am going to have to..

Hi JodiM,

Yes, mold can trigger a migraine attack and it may be a good idea to request you change the location of your desk.

Good luck and keep us posted on how you are doing,
