Answer 2

Sounds like hemiplegic migraine as you getting the numbness, which usually acts as a warning that a migraine is about to come on. There are many treatments available over the counter or your GP. A product called migraleve can now be bought in a chemist. They are available in pink & yellow. You take the pink ones (x2) at the first sign of a migraine & follow with the yellow 3 to 4 hours after. Taking pain relief asap is best because your digestive system slows down during a migraine so therefore the tablets won't get absorbed into your system as quickly. Lie-ing down in a dark room helps too. Some people swear by eating feverfew leaves daily to prevent the migraines occuring in the first place. This herb can be easily grown in a garden or pot.They are very bitter tasting & can be eaten fresh or dried. If the migraines get severe, injections are available or a medication called dihydrocodeine. Migraine can be caused by stress/PMT/food triggers. It may be worth keeping a diary or times of the month etc... & food eaten. Good Luck.

Answer 3

Ok some of this will sound odd but it really works. I first take 500 mg. of magnesium, 1200 mg. of Calcium, 2 Excedrin Migraine, 1 Flexoril (prescription muscle relaxer) & some chocolate. I usually eat a couple pieces of a Hersey Bar with come real Coca-cola not diet. After taking all of the above, lay down in a darkened room . I usually get relief in about 10 - 15 min., on the rare occasion that it is still lingering after 30 min. I add 2 Benadryl capsules....but that is not often. I hope this helps! I know how painful migraines can be & this works every time for me!

Answer 4

try putting a few drops of lavender oil(lavendula angustifolia) on your temples and the back of your head like the skull and seeing if that would help also can try some in a bath only about 4-5 drops and see if that would help as well if you have a diffuser id put some in there and let it spray around your room and it might make you calm and relaxed and eventually your head ache will disappear. If none of this helps try some chamomile tea that seems to work as well. hope this helps.

Answer 5

Sinus Buster makes a migraine formula that works instantly.

Another thing that works in about 2 minutes is N-butanol. But getting it isn't easy. I mention it because I've been in contact with a German pharmacist who has used it with over a thousand patients successfully.

The doctor who cures cancer used n-butanol as part of his method to treat cancer with some patients, for shock, and spontaneous bleeding from cancer.

If you're in Germany, and maybe the Netherlands, you might be able to get it, but in the US, good luck.

Take 1/4 ounce in 4 ounces of grape juice. It still tastes bad, like gin.

Good luck and be well.

Answer 6

I too have tried a number of things.

Try taking ibuprofen and Tylenol at the same time. They target different areas and that sometimes works.

My doc just gave me a sample of 'Amerge' which is available only by prescription and that worked really well.

Drink water if you can keep it down as a lot of headaches are dehydration headaches.

I know how awful you feel and like you say, nothing seem to work all the time.

Answer 7

Regular massage with a certified therapist who has studied headaches.

Answer 8

actuallly laugh if you want, but my lil bnro used to get migraines ALL the time, the doctor told him to put a banana peel on his forehead.

Answer 9

I know you wanted alternative medicine answers, but the only thing that works well for me is Excedrin and a dark room.

Answer 10

I use four 200 mg Advil Liqui-Gels, taken with eight ounces of Coca-Cola, the real stuff not diet.

Answer 11

feverfew
