Why do eggs over easy give me headaches?

Asked by AshlynM (10684points) October 23rd, 2011

Just by looking at them, I get awful headaches. I have a feeling it’s due to the yolk, but not sure why. Scrambled eggs have no effect. It’s also not just me, my mom’s friend is the same way.

Does anyone else have this issue?

if you get the headache from just looking without touching or eating them, it seems to me like you have some kind of psychological reaction, possibly phobia-related.

This guy says that foods don’t trigger migraines. One of the foods sometimes mentioned is egg yolk. If these are awful headaches, they may well be migraines. They might be triggered by smells, or perhaps certain sights. I don’t know. But if you really want to know, you should go see your doctor.
