Thank you so much everyone for your replies, and I am so sorry that I haven't replied until now. I've been quite sick with migraines and tiredness etc, even though I've been sleeping really well!
I went to see my GP about it today and I've got an appointment with the neurologist and I'm also having blood tests to see if my body is lacking anything.
As for the tip about Riboflavin, I drink Ribena every day for that very reason, and for Vitamin B, I have marmite some days. I try to stuff in a decent amount of Vitamin D, by eating fish once or twice a week and some meats, too.
I've avoided every trigger food that I've searched, and it's still not made a difference. I go to the gym 3 times a week, and cycle at least a mile every day - when the weither's good, of course - other than that, I walk for a good half hour every day - 10 minutes to work, 10 minutes at lunch time, 10 minutes home - and I generally keep my muscles as flexed as I can in the job that I am in. I have had my sight tested, and that is fine...
As for sleep, I have been sleeping really well more recently. I suffered horribly with insomnia for some years and that really messed me up, but I ensure now that I get plenty of sleep, because I get cranky and feel wretched in general if I don't.
SeekingZen: I will be starting Yoga and Pilates classes again, I did them not so long ago and found them to be very relaxing. I adore Yoga I also used to have massages every two weeks, but I don't anymore. I'm hoping to get them again, at least once a month.
I've not tried the lavender, I will definitely give that a go! I'll give the head patches and Head On or 4Head a go, it could help... I've only found nurofen express helps, so far. And even that takes a good while to kick in, which is so unfair
I'll update you all once I've got the neurology/blood test results, in the mean time, I'll keep you updated on the testing of different treatments!
Thanks again everyone, you're always so helpful
