Answer 2

I have suffered from migraines since I was 10 years old-I am now 50 so I have had 40 years experience. I do know a bit about them. First, you can have a migraine at any time. There is no set pattern-I have gone months and even years without having a single migraine. There are many migraine triggers. Hormones play a big part. That is why women suffer from migraines 3 times more than men. A week before your period is the worst time. I found that birth control pills helped me. Also, sinus problems and allergies as well as hot weather can trigger migraines. Certain foods can also be a trigger-chocolate and sugar are the number 1 offenders. Cheese can also do it. Watch your stress level too. Ask your Doctor about the triptan drugs such as imitrex and maxalt. These are very effective-they are expensive though. I have found that 2 regular excedrin works pretty good most of the time-the trick is to take medicine before your headache gets to bad. Good luck.

Answer 3

If you're looking for alternative medicine, feverfew is the herb of choice for migraines. As an herbalist and RN, I would highly recommend this herb for you, probably in tincture form if you can get it. I believe that Mountain Rose Herbs carries that product and you can purchase it on line. You can take tincture by either placing a dropper full directly under your tongue (it's absorbed faster that way) or put the dropper full in a small amount of water and drink it. It would take about 20-30 minutes to be effective(just like taking an aspirin), depending on your metabolism, because it has to go through the digestive system, as opposed to 5 - 15 minutes by taking it under your tongue. Good luck!!

Answer 4

I have tried many OTC Medicines as well as prescriptions and I could not find relief for my migraines. Most of them made me sick or so out of it I could not function. About a year ago my mom told me about mangosteen juice. After one week of being on the juice I have gone with out a headache or migraine. I even stopped taking it for a month and sure enough they came back! After going back on the juice my pain was gone in an hour. I have not been without since then. My suggestion is mangosteen juice. It is non habit forming and has no side effects. It is my choice for all of my family and the variety of ailments they have.
Here is some info. I hope you find something that works!

Answer 5

There are a few things I'd recommend for migraine headaches.
1. Soak your feet in hot water for ten to fifteen minutes.
2. Essential oil of peppermint. Put peppermint on your temples, neck, and face escluding eyes and the feet. Make sure to breathe the oil in deeply.
3. Massaging the hands and feet are also good methods.

Answer 6

Here is what works for me.

1 a Goody's headache powder
2. a hershey's bar
3. a can of Coca cola

The headache powder has aspirin and acetimimophen (tylenol), and Cafeine.

The Coca cola and hershey's bar also has cafeine. so you are loading your body up with cafeine (about as much cafeine in two cups of coffee) The Cafeine causes the blood vessels to restrict (ease the pressure), and the aspirin and tylenol relieve the pain
