Question from Baltimore, Maryland, USA:

For the last two years, my four year old son has been waking with migraines which occur about every three months. He then gets less severe headaches over a period of days following the migraine. Someone suggested this could be hypoglycemia. Does it sound like it? What can I do for him?

Answer:

From: DTeam Staff

Migraines are unlikely to represent hypoglycemia. Your son’s pediatrician should be able to help you determine an effective treatment for his headaches.
