XVIII- h -We prescribe the Reduction of Emotional Stress, preferentially without medication.<br />
It seems that all psychotropic medications increase the intraocular, cerebrospinal and probably the inner<br />
ear fluids’ pressures, and consequently they are contraindicated to these patients.<br />
We do not know which psychotropic medications raises more or less the fluids’ pressures. If the intraocular<br />
pressure rises above 21 mmHg, or the Optic Nerve’s borders edema increases to 1 diopter or<br />
more, these medications can reduce the Migraine by converting the patient less sensible to it (Graph<br />
V-1), but increasing the possibility of definitive Optic nerve’s damage without symptoms.<br />
XVIII- i -We prescribe the treatment of patient’s Visceral Disturbances. When necessary, we prescribe<br />
medications that facilitate the intestine evacuation. This prevents the need of strong Valsalva<br />
maneuver daily, and also prevents the chronic intoxication from feces constipation.<br />
XVIII- j -We prescribe do not eat hard digestible meals before sleeping hours.<br />
We prescribe eating a balanced diet in moderate amounts at regular intervals. The dinner or any meal<br />
at the day’s end must be easy digestible, and occurs 3 hours or more before the sleeping time. The patient<br />
must sleep with digestive rest.<br />
The prescription of Ayurveda to <strong>Migraines</strong>: “Avoid hot, spicy foods, fermented foods, and sour or citrus<br />
fruits. A pitta-soothing diet is effective both for migraine relief and as a preventative measure.”<br />
XVIII- k -We prescribe to shut off the light and television set at bedtime: This prevents resting one<br />
arm and forearm over the eyes while sleeping.<br />
XVIII- l -We prescribe to reduce, or to stop whenever possible, every drug that raises the intraocular<br />
or Cerebrospinal fluid pressures, as vasodilators, corticosteroid, estrogen, caffeine, psychotropic.<br />
“More than half of patients with migraine use over-the-counter medication.” (Arunagiri, G; Santhi,<br />
S). The patient must avoid any medication with caffeine included in the same tablet.<br />
XVIII- m -We prescribe to regularize the sleeping hours, nor too few, and very important, nor too<br />
much, because the intraocular pressure raises as more as longer is the sleeping time. The patient must<br />
stand up and do anything that uses his physic. The intraocular pressure, and probably the Cerebrospinal<br />
Fluid and Inner ears pressures get lower on the standing position. Lying in bed is a worsening condition<br />
to all head's fluid pressures and migraines.<br />
XVIII- n -We prescribe physical work or exercises. You do not need to mark points, or time, or win,<br />
or to supplant anybody. Feel your body and exercise him as long as you feel better.<br />
The exercises at upright position lessen the intraocular pressure. “A mean fall in ocular tension of 4.5<br />
mm. was found in both right and left eyes (in open-angle glaucoma) after walking. The higher the ocular<br />
tension before walking, the greater was the fall.” (Leighton DA).<br />
Strenuous exercises lower the intraocular pressure: “Intraocular pressure decreased significantly (during<br />
strenuous exercise) and returned to baseline level 3 hr after its completion. The maximal average<br />
reduction was 4.1 mmHg, 26.5% below the baseline level. The intraocular pressure decreased again<br />
48 hr after the exercise and returned to baseline level 48 hr later.”(Ashkenazi I, and others).<br />
“The amount of intraocular pressure reduction after short-term exercise seems to depend on the intensity<br />
of exercise, not on the duration of exercise or the quantity of exercise.” (Kiuchi Y, and others).
