Ocular migraines and dehydration

.
Every once in a while I get Ocular migraines. No headache just weird zig zag lines in my left eye. For no particular reason, I thought I might be dehydrated. I took my BP and discovered it was lower than usual AND my heart rate was up. When that happens, I know I am dehydrated.

So, I got on the web and did some research. Turns out, dehydration is a cause of migraines. Withing a few minutes of drinking two large glasses of water, my symptoms were almost gone.

If you suffer from migraines, you might want to try it. Water beats drugs hands down

Now, I just hope I remember this the next time it happens.
