I suffer from Migraines. I recently had a Migraine since thursday. I usually take Imitrex, but if you know anything about Migraines if you don't take migraine related medicine at the start of the headache you are screwed. I thought I was going to meet my maker this weekend, I had to go to the emgerency room to get something strong enough to give me some type of relief. My doctor says your menstrual cycle andof course stress can bring them on.
Does anyone else experience migraines? If so is there anything you do as a preventive measure such as diet or meds? What helps when you get rid them? The emergency room gave me Torodal which isn't normally used for migraines but right now is the only reason I'm functioning at all right now.
An old home remedy my daddy used for my mother. A half hour of rock steady will transfer the synapse impulses to a region far from the cranium.

A conversation I had with my Dad as an 8 yr old

Son to Dad

"Dad, why do you buy a bottle of Old Grandad every 28 days and why does it last only a week"

Dad to son

"Without that bottle, you wouldn't see me for a week"

Good luck with that issue. I had a co-worker who had to resign due to the severity of her migraines.
