How do you deal with your migraines?

Aren't they the worst!!! I use ice packs on my neck to cool the blood going into the head, advil, rest and the best thing that I have found is lanocaine...yes the ointment...put it on the temples..pain will be gone in under 20 minutes. I works for me..hope you feel better soon too!! take care

I've been getting migraines for over 20 years. The only thing that gets rid of them for me is the Imitrex injection. I go to the chiropractor to get adjusted to help prevent them and that helps, but when I get stressed out or when Aunt Flo comes that's when they are the most frequent. I just started on a BC called Yaz to help with the severe PMS so maybe that will help with the menstrual migraines.

try acupuncture and some flower medicine(found in vitamin stores) .

I've used cool or warm clothes over my eyes. There are 2 places on the back of your skull. When you have a migraine they become little nodules that are very painful when you press on them. Press on them and hold them for 30 sec and then release for 30. Repeat until you feel the pain go away. Meditation helps-there are specific meditations for migraines. Lastly you can take Imitex and a naproxen or aleve and that always kills mine. You just don't want to do that a lot because it can bother your stomach.

I go to a chiropractor for my migraines actually. It really helps!

I take Topamax. The side effects are weird but it's worth it.

shortly after my son was born i was under allot of stress and started getting frequent migranesthe only thing that worked for me is excrdrin and a tall cup of coffie.it helps allot but dont do frequently the ancetaminfin and caffine is not a healthy mix u should see a doctor for a more permanent solution

Thanks to all who answered, I got a lot of information and some new choices for me to look into and try! :)

Topamax is the only thing that's ever worked for me and it helps prevent them. Side effects are worth it!!

I've been taking Topamax for 3 years. It works great for me. It may make some of your hair fall out though.
