Sid, you're sure it was folic acid that gave you headaches? Is this a common problem with it, or what? First time I've heard about that but I'd like to know more. You see, I include folic acid in my supplements & I get fairly frequent headaches.
Some are tension, some are migraines with auras & some are related to muscle soreness from old injuries- they get so interwoven with one another that it's hard to know what's what sometimes. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
The only 'cure' I've ever found that works consistently is frequent (+4 times per week), & fairly strenuous, physical activity lasting at least 1 or 2 hours. But then if I slip in my activity level & develop a prolonged headache (they can last days or even a week or more), it's difficult to get that physically active again due to the thumping pain.
It was due to the re-emergence of *severe* headaches from sitting too much that I had to give up my attempt to return to university after a year & half of headaches & study. (They also make me stupid - very hard to think, it hurts more)
