[Everything doTERRA] Re: migraines with sensitivity to smell

This is a great topic. I suffer from migraines as well and have been
trying to treat them with the oils. I am making some changes in my
diet too to see if it makes a difference.

I am not sensitive to smell, but rainy and windy days tend to set me
off along with my hormonal changes.

Emily...would you please share what oils you use to treat your
migraines and the protocol that you use? I have been given some
suggestions, but I haven't found the right combination yet. Thanks for
being willing to share!

Evie...I hope that you are able to help the gal! Emily is
right...migraines are the pits!
