So today I got one of these Daith ear piercings done. I read on the internet that some people find they help with migraine (so it MUST be true huh?).
Anyway two of my daughters got the same piercing with me for solidarity, and it amused my family no end that I had ventured into a Tattoo Parlour to get this done!
So I've no idea how or why this might work biologically, but if it does reduce the number, severity or duration of my migraines then I won't argue.
If it does nothing - well if I grow to like it, then I can leave it there.
I'll report back in a few weeks.
PS For those of you who are interested in heart rate monitoring: I was expecting a significant spike in HR during the time this piercing was getting done, but that didn't happen. In fact my heart rate went higher eating my breakfast this morning than it did getting my ear pierced! Weird!
