(so I didn't take any pm this weekend) If i dont have to take any pain pills that night - would it be ok to take the pm? If I woke up in pain would it still be ok to take the pain pills? thanks.

I am having the WORST headaches (over the past week or so). They extend from the crown of my head down my forehead and into my eyebrows (and do not feel like sinus headaches). My head feels like there is a HUGE weigh pushing on it. I assume they are migraines, or tension headaches from stress.

I have been trying to get enough sleep (8 hrs a night), and trying to relax (which doesn't happen much). I also try to eat right, but working so much doesn't give me much to cook.

Let me add that right now I am working about 8-12hrs a day 7 days/week, and don't have a day off until October 20th. So taking a day off is not an option. (And the upcoming days I have off are for a wedding I am in, so it's not like I can just lay and relax.)

I have taken Excedrin. Doesn't work.

I have two questions:

1) What's the difference between a tension headache and a migraine? Which do you think mine are?

2) Any suggestions to alleviate them? (And no, I cannot take time off work. So that's not an option.)

I'm 7 1/2 months pregnant, and I get horrible migraines with blurred vision and flashing lights! I've brought it up to my doctor, and she just told me to take Tylenol and lay down in a dark room. The problem with that though, is I get them at work, and can't lay down in a dark room every time I get one! So, I was wondering if there are any other ways to alleviate them, like pressure points or anything else? Thanks!

a nerve was pinched in my right hip many years ago. In 2004 a medtronics neurostimulater was installed in my body, although it did help it didn't completely take the pain away. I have to take a sedative (seroquel) to avoid daily panic attacks. Meditation & hypnosis help but I am getting worse.

i've been sick for four days now, with a touch of a cold, but worse than that - a really upset stomach and diarrhea.

yesterday i had to go to the bathroom at least ten or twelve times. probably more.
i've taken some pepto bismol, but it's not helping much at all.

anybody have any remedies that might work?
are there particular foods i should eat in certain portions?
should i see my doctor?

thanks.

How can you tell the difference btwn a heart problem and regular gas. I just had an awful twinge (3, actually) in my chest right about where my heart should be. It wasn't dull like gas, but really sharp. Like someone poked me with a needle. But it went away, and my heart was beating normally right after the pain. And about ten minutes later I burped. But my whole family has heart problems, so I wonder if I need to get this checked out?

(They all have cholesterol problems too, but I don't) (I'm 21)

My knees crack and pop all the time, and make a noise like crinkling celophane. They hurt, but it's a dull ache rather than a sharp pain. The noises keep getting louder.

I'm under 30, so I don't know that this is normal aging.
