What Causes Migraine While Swimming?
HI, i am a female 39 years old and i take my 8 month old swimming once a week to our local indoor swimming pool. For the past two weeks ive found that after being in the pool for around 5 minutes i have a migraine starting, with neurological symptoms of not being able to talk properly, think clearly, disturbed vision and the pain in my head begins. Could this severe migraine be related to chlorine gas ?
