Migraines are crap.

[Rodie]

I've had one for about a day and a half. None of the usual stuff works for me (imitrex, treximet, etc.). Percocet helps for a while but doesn't get rid of it. Any sympathizers?

fresh air works

[nodanaonlyzuul]

yes. And honestly, wrapping something tight around your head to help offset the pressure can be helpful, like a rubberband if it's large enough or any tight elastic.

Laying down in a silent, pitch black room with something around my head like that tends to be the only thing that lets me at least fall asleep. Otherwise I'm just laying around in agony. Vicodin helps sometimes too.

I go semi blind when I get a migraine. Not good if you are driving or working.

That stuff usually does the trick.

biofeedback. it works, i promise. i know this because it's my job to know it well, and i can give you academic articles that show you how and why.

I'll have to ask my neurologist about Midrin. What's biofeedback, any articles that you could link me to? Thanks for your help/suggestions peeps.
