Migraine :(
Forums › General Discussion › Migraine :(-
So I got a migraine I'm guessing it's mild as never had one before but people always make out that it's so horrible
They can't move, well I'm not
That bad but! I can't take migraine pills cos they have co codemal in em and that makes me very ill, can't take ibuprofen cos I'm asthmatic, which leaves paracetemol which has had no effect, any home remedies or tips to get rid of this? I'm posting this with one eye shut and lowest brightness setting and it's still hurting :( -
Lights out, soft pillow and sleep it off.. I always had these as a kid. Mine hurt Luke crazy. Couldn't move my eyes felt like I was bein stabed in the head. Light & sound made everything worse

Eat ice cream and a freezing cold drink till you get brain freeze, it might divert the pain for a few minutes lol
-
Yeah I slept for like 12 hours last night, had this since Tuesday night :( might try and sleep it off again, gonna wait an hour till I can take my paracetemal again :( this sucks how long do they usually last?

Take ibuprofen, I'm asthmatic as well and it has no negative effect on me at all.

Tried them drug free pads you put on your forehead? Heard they work well.

a few hours to a few days they could last. I'm also asthmatic n ibuprofen doesn't bother me. If I get one now I'll just take (2)800mg ib's or if bad enuff goto the hospital they have stronger meds.Yeah I slept for like 12 hours last night, had this since Tuesday night :( might try and sleep it off again, gonna wait an hour till I can take my paracetemal again :( this sucks how long do they usually last?

Do you know any massage therapists? :(

I just try to sleep mine off.
Luckily, I've learned the signs of one coming on, and can get it taken care of before it gets bad.
If I get one full on, I try to sleep it off, if it's really bad, I'm giving myself an imitrex shot, which the temporary side effects are about as bad as the headache, but I'm good to function in about 30 min.
If you start getting them often, see a doctor. Everyones is different, and they'd be able to help find the right treatment when they hit.

Alot of people with asthma have said that they still take ibuprofen, I think ima go back to chemist and ask exactly why I can't take them, if it's cos of same ingredients then I just won't take my inhalers, I hate not being able to do anything :(
-
Ok spoke to chemist, it can effect ur breathing but u would be extremely unlucky for it to
Do any harm with just a short term use, so I bought myself some :) -
Ugh, I have migraines a lot, it's miserable. I just take some of these powerful tablets I got in the US.
Hope you get better :) -

I jist Google'd it, if you are allergic to ibuprofen it is very bad for your asthma but acetaminophene(sp?) is recommended (i.e tylonal(sp?) lol

The TurfWars Doctor is in the house..... lol

bella: nope :(
mac: yeah i had a headache tuesday but i pushed through it to play red dead redemption, then suddenly at one point the sounds got all muffeled, thought it was a glitch in the game, least i know next time that happens maybe i should stop playing lol
howard: lol! and what meds are those? thank you :)
coolhandluke: thanks for taking the time to look it up :D im not allergic i dont think, i used to take it when i was younger so im sure if i was id know by now :)
mav: lol! can i get a prescription of some very strong meds to get me through christmas please? :D

I wouldn't bother with anymore painkillers if I were you, they won't touch a migrain. I had some morphine once, and that work a bit. Only a bit mind. All you can do is wait it out, as the constricted blood vessels are now back to normal size, the pain will ease.
-
I hate migraines. I get them all the time.
-
Smoke a blunt😜 trust me it helps... Ive had them since I was 6 and I've found out that helps the best 👍
-
I've just discovered paracetamol night.... Fantastic stuff! Take that and sleep it off... And don't operate any heavy machinery

Hey those 4head pads are awesome, I suffer with migraine and they do work, good advice reaper😄Tried them drug free pads you put on your forehead? Heard they work well.

The meds that work the best are prescription migraine meds - Imitrex, Zomig, etc. I also recommend a prescription antinausea med. Phenergan works for most people, I prefer Tigan though. If you must use an over the counter medicine - Excedrine is helpful. It has both Acetominaphine (Tylenol) & caffine in it. The caffine is supposed to help with the blood vessels. If you don't have any Excedrine you can try Acetominaphine & drinking a coke - probably less effective though. I doubt Alieve would work (although it helps more with regular headaches than Tylenol).
Put an icepack on the back of your neck, even if you aren't nauseas. Climb in bed in a cold, dark, quiet room & try to sleep. I hope you feel better soon!!
[Mac, although the Imitrex shots work the fastest, you don't have to get shots. I rarely have side effects with just pills - whether tablets or sublingual.]
-
Well, for my migraines the most effective thing (outside of serious painkillers) has been Imitrex, Sumitriptan. The pills do not work for me though, only really the injections. The nose spray and dissolving triptan delivery methods work a bit better than the pills, but not as well as the autoinjections. I can only assume this has more to do with my metabolism than whether the pills actually "work" though.

Hey thanks all for ur messages, I got a 4head strip on now, which sooo makes me look like an idiot but it helps, called doctor and am on 600mg of ibuprofen but I can't remember if he said 2 or 3 times a day doh!! Ah well :) he didnt seem worried bout me being asthmatic and taking it either so all good :)
-
Yeah I got those. I throw up about two bags full of stuff I ate. Hurts like bitch. And I have excedrine, but weed is better.
