Answer 2

I am just going to start off with this, since it came to mind immediately: Philippians 4:6-8 New International Version (NIV) 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. I've done a lot of praying about a situation, it started on Saturday and was very difficult until Wed night. I couldn't stop thinking about it and it hurt so much, worse than the initial hurt less than 3 months ago. After talking with a dear friend or two and finding out a little more and thinking about the positives of the situation and reading and listening to some encouraging information on the bible, I woke up Thursday not thinking about it and feeling peace, and I've stopped thinking about it nearly as much. Mind you, it is still hurts, but I do feel at peace and I am thinking about it much much less and actually feel genuinely happy. I know it is because of that scripture and also Matthew 7:7-11 New Century Version (NCV) Ask God for What You Need 7 “Ask, and God will give to you. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will open for you. 8 Yes, everyone who asks will receive. Everyone who searches will find. And everyone who knocks will have the door opened. 9 “If your children ask for bread, which of you would give them a stone? 10 Or if your children ask for a fish, would you give them a snake? 11 Even though you are bad, you know how to give good gifts to your children. How much more your heavenly Father will give good things to those who ask him! and Hebrews 10:24-25 New Century Version (NCV) 24 Let us think about each other and help each other to show love and do good deeds. 25 You should not stay away from the church meetings, as some are doing, but you should meet together and encourage each other. Do this even more as you see the day[a] coming. I know that's a lot of scripture, but it's true and it's my life and I'm okay now. maybe I have a tendency to get over things faster anyway, but being with friends and having encouraging discussions and being around positive, fun people has helped tremendously. I know it's not over, but the pain is more like an annoying back ache instead of a shooting pain in my stomach. ';)

Answer 3

You need to go to the dr asap. Migraines affect the blood vessels in your head & eyes which is what causes the throbbing pain & light sensitivity. Your migraine could be caused by allergies also. They can give you a shot of phenagren & imatrex & in 10 minutes you'll feel like a new person. Been there done that.

Answer 4

Ok you need to get a cold rag on the back of your neck, also frogete the chemical crap it's time to try natural, try Feverfew it's great I sufffered from migraines as well and use it and they're gone, you also need to take at least 1200 mg of magnesium per day that will help keep the migraines away, but for now, cold towel dark quiet room

Answer 5

Go to the Doctor - It could be related to your Neck, Back, Blood Pressure, Food allergy, Stress Level, or hormones.

There is an extensive list of drugs that can be used to treat the symptoms - but there is an underlying cause that needs to be identified and addressed. Trust me I've had 20 years of it you need to get to the source because there are some nasty drugs on thelist as you work your way down,

Answer 6

have you tried accupunture? I had the migraine from hell that would not go away it lasted 2 1/2 weeks,finally I went to an accupunturist and about half way through it my migraine was gone.It is worth a try.

Answer 7

I had migranes since i was seven it started during school teachers yelling at students. I am now fourteen, i went to get my physical and i told my physician that i am having migranes four to six times a week. Some times i couldnt sleep and i would have them in a 3 day role they never went away aless i slept for like six hours with quiet. He prescribed me medicine called mylan for a mounth and it worked. But it has side effects like i stoped taking it 2 weeks ago, and when i wake up in the morning i am very tired and usually cant get out of bed. My body wants to fall asleep during class. The medicine had to be taken during a.m time and couldnt be taken during P.M and i think im noticing back pains. Thats all the advice i could give you, if you need antmore try to email me.

Answer 8

Try getting the herb "Feverfew" from a health food store. Be sure to follow directions. I've tried it and it seems to work for me. I've had migraines for 45 years.

Hey genius .... she just said Imitrex wasn't working.

Of course the OP isn't any smarter by sitting here asking this question on the computer instead of calling her doctor or going to the ER.

What would this world be like if even half the people had a freakin' clue??

Answer 10

No joking, Marijuana will help with your migraines. Talk to an alternative care provider for information, hopefully yours is one of the states that have decriminalized it...and hopefully you are over 21 or forget about it.
