Migraine pain

Fri, 05/19/2006 - 08:43
Help me!!! I awoke this morning with a horrible, pulsating migraine on the left side, in back of my eyes, and the back of my head. I have taken Asprin, (which has ALWAYS gotten rid of these things) to my dismay it is not helping. Does anyone have any secrets for making it go away (besides curling up my my dark room for the remainder of the day)? I also feel like I'm coming down with something, and will be grateful for secret family flu remedies as well. Thank you very much. =) Hope everyone is well, Susan

Serious, try this, it does work.... Rub Vicks on your temples. It smells and it tingles a little bit but it makes the pulsating and the pain stop. I finally got my sister to try it and she was amazed. Try it and let me know how it goes.

Hi Ramblin. I just told someone about your idea and she tried it. I think it's working for her.

You might be married, but you deserve a hug and kiss. Thank you, that did the trick. Wow, it actually felt pretty good, too. Susan
