I just wanted to see if anyone had any experience of this, or any advice.

I am fairly healthy, drink lots of water, rarely drink alcohol (and if I do its only half a glass), I eat well, and my only really treat food is chocolate.... I love it. I go to the gym 3 times a week, Im a weeny bit overweight but certainly not massive.

BUT, I always wake with what feels like a hangover. Ive had it for years now, I feel sick, the headache wakes me at night..... last night I was up 4 times with the headache and feeling like I was going to throw up. This morning I feel lousy and so sick, but as the morning goes on the 'hangover' will fade.

I have found seeing a osteopath to 'click' my neck helps, but just wondered if anyone else had any experience/advice about this, its really affecting my life.

Lots of thanks and love,

sorry havent a clue but as its when you are lying down maybe some sort of reflux? (just that you feel like throwing up) or is that because the headache is bad? or do you drink enough at night or get overheated at night.?

How are your iron levels and Vit B levels? They can throw you out.
{{hugs} I know its not a nice feeling.

It happened yesterday. I woke 4 times through the night with a migraine, was physically sick. Then got up at 5am and was ill til 11am, just like a hangover feeling. I drink loads of water, and don't drink alcohol so I don't think it dehydration.

At 11am, it just disappeared, what every it is, just vanishes, and then I was fine by the evening, just washed out.

Its weird, and scares me abit because sometimes the migraine is debilitating.

Could it be something in your room, setting the migraines off. Like a smell or something. Could it be something yourve eaten in the evening that you have most nights which could set a migraine off.? I don't get migraines but have heard chocolate is a trigger. I would go to your gp to rule out any other probes.
You poor thing, I would hate waking every night with a hang over . I hope you find some relief soon.

Thanks for that. I should go to the Gp, Ive had it for a few years now, (and we've been in the same house all that time, so maybe it is an environmental trigger).

It is awful waking up with a "hangover" nearly every day, especially when I haven't had any fun the night before to make it worthwhile! Im in bed by 9pm, and just a cup of tea in the evening, so a very boring lifestyle here... and yet still the hangover!

Any damp in the house at all? Is it in any way possible a leaky building anywhere? Just thinking as an environmental issue black mould (often within wall cavities or behind wall paper at least) can cause all sorts of issues.

Is there any way you can sleep in another room in the house for a period of time to see if it is the room you normally sleep in or possibly the house or another possibility?

Hi,

I recommend that you go to your GP as soon as you can so you can rule out some not very nice possibilities.

Stay safe.

When my reflux was bad I would clench my jaw in my sleep giving me migraine type headaches and the feeling of nausea, I would also wake exhausted as my sleep was dreadful.

Actually, thinking about it, we just had 3 weeks away and I wasn't ill once then! Not at all, so the environment was very different and I was fine.

Also, last night I actually ate and drank alot... it was DD birthday and we had some bubbly to toast her once she was asleep. First time Ive drunk alcohol in a long time. I avoid it, because I have a hangover when I don't drink, so goodness knows what I'd be like if I do.

I knew Id pay for it, and would be doubly ill today.... but nothing. In fact, the only time I didnt get a 'hangover' was when I actually drank and deserved one! How weird is that!

Maybe it is stress and jaw clenching and the wine relaxed me? Or maybe it is environment, I know I should def go to the Drs though.

Thanks for all of your help, I feel worried and very alone about this.

ooooh hugs, that sounds awful. Hope you figure something out.

Cool, so when are you going to the DR... do you need us to bully you into it?

You're so right Felicis, If it was one of the children, they'd have seen the Dr and specialist already by now... when its me, I sort of keep leaving it. Ive had this headache/migrane/hangover for about 3 years now, and still not seen anyone, and its got worse.

You are right, I will go. Thank you.

**Bully one enters** Go to your Dr!

Thank you, I do need that.

Im taking DD to the drs next week, so maybe I'll ask about it then. I mean, I will definitely ask about it then.

You know, reading other posts and other threads I wonder if its a menopause thing? Im only 41, so it never even crossed my mind, but there seems to be a few threads that talk about that and say something simelar.

I definitely have to get it checked out, so thank you for the kick up the backside.... I will go.

I had this feeling a few months back - wasn't actually sick but very nauseous and felt like I was about to vomit often. Nasty headaches and general lethargy. Went to the Drs and had blood tests - nothing wrong there. Someone (on this board actually) suggested getting my eyes checked - and I did - and I needed reading glasses!

Definitely made a difference and I have noticed that I have that horrible feeling back this week - have left my glasses at our caravan! Will be interesting to see once I have my glasses back how I feel and how long it takes to come right. It's a terrible feeling. Will also arrange to get a second pair of glasses!


Good luck and hopefully it's something as simple as my case!

Thank you L-J, I am actually going through something about my glasses/contact lenses at the moment, and have been advised to have Lasik eye surgery because my prescription/glasses are so complicated, (long story), but it does tie in with what you say, because my glasses make my 'hangover/migraine' worse, my contact lenses less so.

Ohhh, it'd be great if that's all it was.

I will go and get the blood checks first and am seeing the opticians/surgeons this week, so I will try and sort it out. Thanks for the tips though.

Good - hope to hear you reporting in asap letting us know you have been to the dr!

Thank you. I will make an appointment next week, I am getting abit worried now, because I feel ill so often, yet I am way healthier than anyone I know with diet, exercise etc, so something isn't right.

Thanks for the support and kick up the backside, I will go to the Drs.

It's Monday GO MAKE THAT APPOINTMENT!
