My migraines have continued so I have stopped taking my herbs. I am currently only doing massage with borage oil mixed with lotion, or just lotion sometimes. I have been wracking my brain trying to figure out the problem. I think I may be having a reaction to wild yam. The migraines seemed to have started after I began using WY, and I didn't have any problems when I was using fenugreek, SP, and RC. I had also been using WY extract mixed with lotion for massage, but stopped because it kept making me itchy, which I thought was just the alcohol in the extract irritating my skin. Then one day when I used it for massage and I immediately broke out in hives.
SO, hopefully that's all it is and I can just get back to my program and replace WY with something else. I think I will do a milk thistle cleanse to get it all out of my system before starting again.
