Case Study: 'Wheat made my head hurt'
Headaches blighted Pauline Napier's adult life until she found she had a wheat intolerance
"I would get a migraine two or three times a month. It used to take me two or three days to recover," says the 41-year-old office administrator from Sidcup, Kent.
"I went down most routes, everything from conventional medication to homeopathy, but nothing seemed to touch it."
A friend persuaded her to be tested for food intolerance. "I didn't think there would be any connection, but I had got to the stage where I would try anything.
"As soon as I got the results I started to cut out wheat from my diet. It was very difficult to start with, because wheat is included in so many things. But it has all been worth it because the migraines have gone. If people look at their diets they may find changes help. It worked for me."
