The dreaded Migraine has made an appearance.
I CAN'T stand it!
I am inclined to believe it's from the poor air quality-smoke.
I have woke with a headache for the past three days. Urgh!
I always get them in the winter when we have an inversion,
but usually in the summer not so much.
Today I woke with one, was able to get rid of it...
and now late this evening I feel it coming back.
I HATE taking Migraine medication.
Not that it makes me sleepy or anything, I just hate taking it.
Plus it costs a fortune!
I wish I knew of other ways to treat/get rid of headaches.
If any of my friends have suggestions, I am open to them.
I put ice on my head and that helps.
I try drinking Diet coke....For medicinal purposes only...ha! jk.
I've tried Ben Gay on my neck, Tiger Balm on my temples,
I've tried a sinus decongestant,
All of these things help sometimes, but not always.
The only sure fire way to get rid of it is to take 1/2 of a pill
that costs me about $33.00 each.
I'm a whiner.

I feel for you. I was getting really bad migraines for a while. Like one every other week that honestly put me out for at least a couple of days. My vision would go funny and my right side of my body would go numb. Yucky. I started doing yoga and I'm not kidding you it really helped. I also started keeping track of when they would happen and what I had been doing or eating prior to getting one to see if there was a pattern. I started being a lot more careful about drinking enough water, watching what I was eating, and I had to stop running as much as I had been. I have gotten them under control, but I have to be really careful. I had a really bad headache today although it hasn't turned into a migraine. Maybe it does have something to do with the air? In any case I hope you can figure yours out, because they ARE NOT pleasant!
sorry you've had headaches Mom. I should ask Landon what he does to get rid of them, because I know he gets them a lot. Maybe he would have an idea? Who knows. Love you
