No need too. I just wanted to say I know exactly what you were saying and I was not trying to compare a migraine to things like that

You may need a hit of strong THC like a dab.

I would take BC. My doctor told me that was one of the worst things to take for migraines as it can make them worse

Many years ago I was diagnosed as having cluster headaches. I drug called Cafergot worked for me. I haven't had them in many years.

I wish you the best.

My youngest son has migraines and that is what he does. I try that at night. But at work it’s been impossible. Nothing like lecturing on the Constitutional development and history of the Republic while wanting to rip your head off and having to go puke every 40 minutes

Key is the find the cause. Took be 20+ years to figure out what all causes mine. Damn near killed me in college. Usually was a combination of some of these things:

Caffeine (too much)
Lack of sleep
Certain nuts
Eye strain
White light (window light)
Stress

Anyway. They suck. Had them from fourth grade until after college.

Stay away from the key causes and see if things get better. Good luck.

If you’ve really had a migraine for 8 straight days, you should have seen a doctor by now.



I was there last week. I’ve been using the medicine he gave and trying to see if it works. The horrible pain isn’t constant, sometimes it’s just pressure. But the intensity of the pain gets up there several times a day

I’ve thought about it. In the past I took CBD gummies

I sympathize. Our family is cursed with them.

Eight days is too long. Get to an ER. They can give you a shot that will take care of it.

Then go see your MD. Get an Rx for a drug that you can take when one comes on.

Rizotriptan works for me. Imiteex is another good one.

Good luck.

Definitely trying to find what triggers them. I’ve not always had them. Im 44 and it’s been a more recent thing. I know I don’t sleep well and I do wear glasses. Might need to get my eyes checked again

Have you tried B2 or Magnesium? Neurologist that my kid went to recommend these supplements. After taking the B2, no more migraines.

Thank you. I have been put on sumatriptan and fioricet (sp) I am weary of ER cause I’m not looking for hard drugs and I’m worried that’s what they would think and not really take it serious. I’ve messaged my primary doctor and will probably go back to him.

I have had health issues the past couple of months (heart, respiratory) and don’t know if all of this is related

I have not tried those. But you’re the second person today to suggest that. I will look at those
