<p>Agree with anxiousmom. Though I haven’t read that book, it seems my Dr. follows the same theories. I kept food diary in the past which helped identify food triggers. When I first saw Dr. I went on elimination diet which sounds like what she is describing and then added back foods one at a time to see which ones bothered me. For me, small amount of chocolate is ok–but more triggers a migraine. Also orange juice, very ripe bananas, coffee, very much nutrasweet, aged cheese and the even the smallest amount of red wine are all consistent triggers. Home over the holidays may be a good time to experiment and find out what works or rather doesn’t work for you. Good luck.</p>
<p>kw-I know what you’re going through. I’m a freshman in college and have had concentration problems for similar reasons, medications that mess with me, having to go to class barely functional, etc. And I too have to maintain my scholarships to be able to afford staying in school. PM me if you wanna talk.</p>
<p>Also, a bit of advice: If you’re having trouble, I’d talk to each professor individually. I’d stay away from registering with ADA or anything that goes on your record. That sort of stuff has a way of getting leaked.</p>
