The headache of having migraines...

I am a "migraine sufferer" and it sucks. I have had a migraine pretty consistent now for about 2 weeks and I hate them. If you have never had one, it feels like your brain is being smooshed against your skull, while your eyes are tender/sore and you feel nauseated. Light of any kind sends horrible pains throughout your head and eyes, making the throbbing worse. When I get these, all I want to is sleep but that is not always possible and does not cure it. $ years ago, I had a migraine everyday for four months straight, it was horrible. I hope that never happens again.


I have taken different kinds of medication but none of them eliminate the migraine entirely. I looked up different cures for migraines and found some interesting ones so i thought i would share:
-soaking a piece of brown paper bag in vinegar and putting it on your forehead before you sleep
-taking a hot shower for 5 min then a cold for 5 min
-holding your breath underwater in a bathtub for 20 seconds
-having your children sit on your head... (strange, i know)
-Botox
-Drinking cold, cold milk
-Also, apparently putting anything on your forehead is supposed to help, such as cabbage leaves, peppermint oil, vinegar, heat, kids, lemon peels, sandalwood powder(what??)
-lukewarm water enema( this will help your head??)


So even though I hate getting migraines, especially when they last so long like this one, I am thankful that it is not something too serious and am able to live my life still. Right now, I am thinking prayer is the best medication.. if you have any goods ones, let me know!

I had a horrible reaction to this stuff!
