Ladies,
I woke up this morning with a headache and it's still here! Not getting better. Haven't had one like this in a long time. There was a sudden change in the weather yesterday and I'm sure that's part of it but I need to feel better today -- have to take son on his new paper route this afternoon, etc.
Thanks for your prayers,
Holly
ps-- put some thieves and lavender oil on my head and am off to lay down with a warm washcloth as well.
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!

Have you tried rubbing some peppermint oil into your temples? That could help a bit I think.
Hope you are feeling better my dear. Have hubby try a foot massage! ((((hugs)))))

Thanks ladies, It's still hanging around. Thought hubby might have to take me to hospital shortly after he got home but it has lessened again. I took some homeopathic meds around 2pm with coffee and things were better but then we he got home at 3:30 it was all I could do not to cry -- he told me to stop saying Oh God and Jesus over and over but it was more a prayer than anything! Took some motrin and more homeopathics and now it's just a dull ache. Hopefully it won't get that bad again.... if it does I will go in. I haven't had one this bad in years, worries me a bit with my Chiari Malformation.

Hey, Aimee: my migraine prescription is two tylenol and a cup of coffee. So close, yet so different...just like the spelling of our names!
If your headaches are caused by allergies, I have had really good luck with loratidine (over the counter claritin). |

Take a couple sniffs of menthol. Vicks vapor rub. My allergies are killing me right now. I also swear by excedrin. My sister thought I was being picky until she had her first migrane. Two excedrine with a coke. Works Wonders when all else fails.

Holly, the heated rice (or a corn pillow, which is what I have) really works on some headaches. I use it for sinus headaches and migraines, when I feel pain and pressure around my eyes and nose. Hope you feel better before you need to drive. Good luck! |

Hon, sometimes putting something either warm or cold at the base of your skull helps. Try thee rice in a sock trick...just tie some rice in a sock or other small thing and microwave for 1 minute.... It was recommended to me yesterday and it really helps. Usually headaches need cold for me to feel better and a frozen bag of peas is a great thing to have around...just write don't eat on them and they will serve quite a long time for head aches bites and bumps
I hope that you feel better :}
Wishing you joy in small things and peace in your heart

I will sure keep you in my prayers..I tend to get headaches too..lavender and a dark room help me alot...sounds like you are doing all the right things...My bad knee is killing me today..I am sure it IS the weather change, I bet that is contributing to your headache too.
Take care!!!
