Fish causes migraine - can I take fish oil supplements?

I used to suffer with bad migranes similar to a stroke but have found the cause. Cheese and fish are the culprits so I avoid them now. However, fish has so many health benefits and I want to take a cod liver oil or omega 3 suppliment.
Will this start off the migraines again?
 
If it's the Omega 3 fatty acids in the fish that are triggering the migraines the yes it will cause them to return. It may be something else in the fish that causes your migraines. You may want to discuss this with your doctor before you start taking the supplements.
 
do you eat chocolate cheese and oranges, by any chance,
if so lay off of anything like satsumas , or anything acidity..
that can trigger migraines off.

if you want to take cod liver oil, take it in capsules.
check with gp 1st though.
