I just read something in my home inspections textbook about people getting migraines from their central heating systems in their house. Basically, if the heat exchanger is cracked(which does happy quite frequently), there could be a small amount of carbon monoxide getting into the air coming out of your vents. There has been cases where people have had migraines for years and had been to the doctor for cat scans and such, only to find out during a routine inspection that the heater exchange was cracked in their furnace. I do not suffer from migraines, but I see alot of questions about them and thought that this info might be able to help somebody out there. So everyone, get your furnace checked. It is a simple step and should cost very little and take only a few minutes.

I know this is not really a question, but like i said before, I think that this info could help some of the sufferers out there.

I suffered migraines for 14 years. My dad thought about the carbon monoxide problem and found a small (and cheap) device like a smoke alarm which checks for carbon monoxide. He first put it by my bed, then moved it all around the house. Luckily we had no problem, but I have also heard that CO2 can cause migraines.

yeah one to two hits will ease the pain for an hour and a half. smoke a whole bowl(6 hits) and u should be good for half a day. think about how many pills ud have taken instead. also marijuana eases pain, aspirin and legal drugs hide the pain and can cause reyes syndrome. hiding pain is the reason people get injured when they play sports. especially from a cortizone shot. in conclusion puff away, but too much of a good thing is a bad thing. id limit yourself to 2 bowl packs a day.you can use a bong to take 90% of the tar out. it will be the equivalent to smoking a half a cigarette a days worth of tar so not that bad. also vaporizing will mean no tar? to vaporize it hold the flame away when you hit it so it curls a little but doesnt burn. youl get just as high and no negative side affects
