You could crave certain sweet foods as compare to other days, especially chocolate. So, here is the list of early signs of a migraine.

 

Mood

Sleep

 

You may feel unusually tired before a migraine, as it is an early sign of a migraine. And too much or too little sleep could be the cause of the same. Try to figure out how sleep connects to your symptoms. That can help you stay away from your triggers and possibly keep a migraine from coming on.

 

Sensitivity to light or sound
