Red alert: That glass of wine at lunch may hurt | CanadianBusiness.com

Not unlike many migraineurs, I cannot have a nice glass of wine without getting an ER worthy migraine in return. Red wines give me more severe migraines than whites but all in all, it's best if I stay away completely. Drinking any kind of alcoholic beverage guarantees having the worst pain ever. If I really want to enjoy some wine, especially Riesling which is my favorite, I must take a Benedryl capsule at least thirty minutes beforehand. The histamines in the wine trigger migraines for me so taking Benedryl allows me to savor some relaxation in a glass, even if I can only have half a glass before passing out!
