"Listen to the patient for he is your diagnosis" Hippocrates
Myself, I would recommend not drinking alcohol or eating any "dark" foods, foods that have been fermented, like black beans and rice.
The changing sides, with me, indicates the cycle is ending. A fragile state, because it seems if they come back they are worse.
You've got to remember the pain you just experienced and ask yourself, do I feel lucky, is it worth that drink?
I'm 46 and haven't been able to drink in years. Eventually the desire passes. Also the memory of those nights alone, pacing, holding my head, cursing this Beast, finally convinced me a lifestyle change was in order. Istill get headaches but I've eliminated the triggers that I'm aware of.
Good Luck...
