Migraines/visual aura 2 hours later
I’ve been using my sauna for about 6 months. Usually 190F for 15 minutes or so, two sessions, maybe 4 times per week
Over the winter, I would jump in the pool for a few minutes. Nothing really timed and I don’t know what the temp was
As it’s warmed up, I was missing the cold, so I have a cold plunge set up as of a month ago.
Between sauna sessions I would do 4 min at around 50F
The last 3 times I’ve done this over the past week, I’ve had visual auras that lead up to a migraine for me about 2 hours after the plunge/sauna. I had dropped the temp closer to 48, but just a few degrees different.
I only get a migraine about once a year, so to get three in the last week is certainly unusual.
Any tips on staying with this, but preventing the migraine? Planning to give it a few days off and put the temp back up around 50F, but I’d like to be able to trend colder if I can control the migraines. Thanks
