A question about Migraines?!
Question: A question about Migraines!?
I have migraines every month since I was 15 (Now 19) I've always taken double dose and sometimes double dose doesn't work and sometimes it dose but some days I repeatedly take pills through out the day!. I've taken 16 pills of Ibuprofen in one day (Not all at once) and still have HORRIBLE migraines!. It just left me severely Constipated!. I've used Advil Migraine, Ibuprofen and Tylenol extra strength!. Some months it works but every other months I get them and the pills don't work no matter how many I take or what I take!. They start off as a headache, so I know when to take my pills before it turns into a migraine but I get those months were it doesn't work! What can cause these migraines!? They hurt!

First go to your doc and see what meds are best for you!. I have had migraines for 26 yrs!. The meds that some docs have tried for me are the ones that you take at the onset to stop them!. They don't work!. I started taking Topamax about 1 1/2 years ago and hav had great success with that med!. Migraines are and can be very very bad I have had them to last 5 days before!. Hopefully this will help you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
First of all, really not a good idea to take that much ibuprofen in one day!. Second of all, I've had the same problem and a year ago, after one of the worst migraines of my life (I started to experience some changes in my vision--a sign of "migraine aura") my doctor prescribed me Imitrex and it is the first kind of medication to be able to kick my migraines completely--I do still experience some "woozyness" because of it, but that's far better than the pain I would normally have!.
I would definitely recommend that you go see your doctor and ask him/her what migraine medication they would suggest--there are sooooo many out there and certain ones work for some people but not others, so it's a good amount of trial and error!. But definitely mention Imitrex!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I get HORRIBLE headaches!. All on one side, and they feel like my head's about to explode!. Recently, I read this study saying that those who drink tea (5 cups a day) lower their risk of stroke by like 72% or something like that, so I was like well!.!.stroke is in the brain, and I've heard that migraine sufferers are 50% more likely to suffer a stroke!.!.!.so I was like hm maybe tea will help!. Tried drinking a bunch of green tea, and it really did help sooo much!. It's not a placebo effect deal either because I've heard that all kinds of things help migraines in the past and tried them only to get no relief!. So try making yourself a cup of hot tea (if you don't have green tea, the study did actually say that black tea was more beneficial anyway)!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
