Caffeine (in chocolate, sodas, coffee, etc.) IS one of the biggest triggers in a lot of people, but not everyone one. I've been drinking soda pretty much all my life, I can drink a 2 liter bottle easily in just an afternoon and the caffeine doesn't cause them, what does cause them for me is when I don't have enough caffeine. Just like IBS, headaches and migraines are different for different people and everyone has different triggers. Some it's lack of sleep, most it's caffeine, some lack of caffeine. For someone who eats some chocolate every day, I kind of doubt that is the cause unless the headaches have been there the whole time, but like Belinda suggested, it would be good for a bit of time to stop and see if they improve. If they don't, it's probably not the chocolate that's causing them. If it DOES improve, it probably is the chocolate. It's trial and error to see what works and what doesn't, just like with IBS.
