Salt Craving?

I have started to notice that I crave something salty during a migraine. I normally don't like very much salt on my food. Anyone else experience this?

  1. Yes! I am currently having a migraine attack ( about two hours in) and I just rang my other half to ask him to get me chips on the way home from work! Chips over here are French fries with salt and vinegar! I wonder though is it because I was off my food yesterday and didn’t eat much today?! The body’s way of replacing lost salts because of this?
