i've been suffering
with migraines since i was 7
now they been getting more frequent and now to the point where i am getting
dizzy and feeling sick to my stomach. my vison also seems to become blurry but
when i don't have the headaches i have 20/15 vision (yes i have been to the eye
doctors). i try to take medication but nothing seems to work anymore and the
headaches seem to last for days
any help or suggestions you have would be greatly appricated
I've had them since I was about 12, and also am very resistant to the triptans
that are commonly prescribed. The symptoms can manifest themselves differently
over time, even getting as severe as stroke-like symptoms (e.g. can't speak or
write, confusion, very scary). I'm usually "hung-over" for about 2-4 days. The
neurologists are going to keep firing medications at you, eventually including
blood pressure meds. If it were me, I would diligently track what when I was
eating and drinking, and my mood around the time you get one (I'm unbelievably
absent-minded in the days before one).
With me, we finally found my ultimate triggers to be stress and caffeine. After
YEARS of befuddled doctors and ineffective meds, decaf coffee fixed it. Try the
simple, but hard to find causes, and maybe this can circumvent formal treatment.
Remember, it's far easier for a neurologist to prescribe something than to
really get down to nitty-gritty cause and effect, so you must take this
responsibility on yourself. Good luck busting the Migraine Devil!
Should definitely be under a doctors care. Have you tried to eliminate food as a
trigger? It takes a lot of bookkeeping to write down EVERYTHING that you eat,
but sometimes pays off. I am allergic to alkoloids that trigger my headaches.
They are found in any alcoholic beverage, and chocolate. MSG is the other know
trigger and very common. Some restaurants use cheap food or an open salad bar
and bathe their foods in MSG to enhance the flavor or make them appear edible
longer. It may take some extensive test but usually a cause can be found, even
medically.
I would see your Dr about the change in your headaches. Mention the dizziness
and the blurry vision also.
You may just need some different medication? But it is always best to report any
changes.
GO TO THE DOCTORR!!!!
get better soon );
pl see what suits you.
If you are in cold country use all warm things.
If you have cough/cold body hot water bath will help.
Massage and exercise in front of morning sun is good thing, pl try.
Pl try simple acupressure given below for immediate relief.
If it fails you will have to go for Acupuncture.
There is hardly any medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for RA, OA,
Back ache, Ear ache/ringing, Stomach ache and almost all painful diseases. Hence
they become chronic.
Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis,
constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV
COMPUTER SOMETIMES, Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy, BODY CONSTITUTION
etc are their causes.
None of them can be treated with medicine.
Our 100% success in treating migraine H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment.
I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Pain killers don't treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time;
in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
The useless drugs have tremendous power of side effects like liver/kidney
failures, ulcer, inflammation of intestines and lot more.
Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, tension, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale
bakery foods, SMOKING and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits like dates, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS
and good sleep will help if cough is not there.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite
nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue.
Betel leaf helps but it is very strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point (with round tipped pen/jimmy) 3-6 mm
behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
For forehead/eye pain the points are in front of nails on the finger tips or 3-7
mm below.
It may disappear naturally too.
