you’ve most likely heard of CGRP: Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptides.
And what that does is create inflammation around the outside of the brain called the meninges.
If the meninges have a lot of inflammation around there, they bind down, causing a lot of pain in the head, leading to headaches and migraines.
So the question for me is always, well, why is that happening?
Why is calcitonin being released in that area?
Why is it happening with some people, not other people?
What’s caused it to happen?
If you haven’t identified the why of that, that’s something we need to dig deeper into and figure out why is it happening.
They oftentimes are talking about the cause being genetic, meaning that your mother and father passed on a gene to you leading to migraines.
But it’s odd if your mother or father or even anyone in your family doesn’t have migraines, but you do it seems that there are more layers to it than just a gene issue.
Let’s talk about why and figure out how to get you feeling better.
