Are migraine, migrainous headaches, and headache the same thing?
-
Migraine refers to a specific type of headache characterized by the presence of neurological symptoms before or during the headache episode.Therefore, migraine, also known as migrainous headache or headache, is a neurological disorder with characteristic symptoms such as pulsating pain accompanied by other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, and sometimes visual aura. These symptoms may include visual disturbances such as light flashes or zigzag lines, as well as sensory or speech symptoms.In summary, all migrainous headaches are migraines, but not all migraines are migrainous headaches. Migraine encompasses a variety of types and symptoms, and migrainous headache is just one of them.

Why is this test useful for me?
- Histamine is a molecule that is metabolized in the intestine, and is eliminated with the help of the enzyme DAO.
- Histamine is present in our body and also in many foods. A deficiency of the DAO enzyme means that our body does not process histamine well, and that causes a food migraine.
- This test is recommended for people who suffer from migraines frequently, and have not found a specific cause.
- Some processed foods that may contain histamine are: sausages (raw or cured), alcoholic beverages, fermented vegetables, canned oily fish and mature cheeses.
- Some examples of natural foods that are high in histamine: pasteurized milk, eggplant, apricot, spinach, swiss chard, and more.
- The patient must fast for at least 6 hours prior to taking the sample.
