Timid Toad 18 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I have suffered from migrains since a small baby . get the vomiting and all the rest . spent about ten yrs of my life being a guinie pig for the docs with injections and tablets etc nothing ever seemed to work . its caused by the blood vessles swelling in the brain . best thing i find is to take 2x 500 m asprin the min it starts then a pint of water with 2 x400m ibuprofen that helps the swelling . works for me most of the time lol .it can also be triggered by certain foods and changes in hormones .hope thi is of some help . I wouldnt wish them on my worse enemy :sick: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SportingShooter 0 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I get them when the weather and seasons change and more so in Spring. I take 2 Neurofen and go to bed with the curtains closed in the pitch black. Normally go fairly soon but I have had them for two days before now. SS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiff 36 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 does anyone get the rage feeling that I get? I mean seriously anger than blocks all other feeling out? That is something the doctors could never really explain? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cúagusgiorraí 57 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I have to drink a caffeinated cuppa every morning. If I miss it, I get a real pounder of a migraine. I think my body has a caffeine addiction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
