Oh man, I'd love for a reduction in that. I sort-of deal with it.

As a kid I had nearly daily migraines - go into a very dark quiet room and be happy when I fell asleep, since I knew the migraine wouldn't be there when I woke up.

These days it's just headaches, 99% sure it's muscle tension in my neck. Kinda doubt GLP-1 could do anything for that, but I'd be pleasantly surprised....



I had very similar issues, both as a kid and an adult. I now take 500mg of Magnesium (Malate or Glycinate. NOT Citrate, as that is a laxative) nearly every night, and my headaches are almost completely gone now. I still get one every once in a while, but it's infrequent enough that I no longer worry about my use of Ibuprofen to manage it.


Get your magnesium level checked. Those that suffer from chronic migraines often are deficient in magnesium and will see a significant reduction in events after 4-6 weeks on a daily Magnesium supplement.
