I Hate Migraine!

Migraine is a terrible thing. I am one of the favorite victims of this thing. I hate it so much. I used to get these severe headaches since many years. My head was ready to burst. I visited many doctors but while some gave painkillers, some said migraine can never actually be cured. However, the last doctor I visited was the only one who helped me cope with this for a long period. She gave me a medicine called Fluner-10 and the dosage prescribed was 1 tablet daily every morning for a period of 6 months. I got a lot of relief while I was on this medication. However, a couple of months after I stopped taking this medicine, the headaches have returned. Sometimes my entire head aches and sometimes only half of my forehead, mostly the left side. Painkillers do not help me get rid of the pain. It is truly unbearable just as you felt it. I try to stay away from the sun and I would suggest you do that too. Always carry an umbrella and wear sunglasses when you are outside. The pain really takes long to subside. The last two weeks I did not get this headache but I am scared as when it will show up again. Having suffered myself, I can completely understand how you have had to deal with this horrible thing called migraine. I really hope you won't have to face it again. This is one of the worst things that can happen to a person.

Hello friend as your hubby said, it would be from your eyes. You check for the power variation for eyes. May be it would cause headache. If the pain is due to other reason then regular sleep and diet would be the medicine. Take care.

hi mtr, I hate feeling not ok maybe you need to take some rest Or better yet consult a doctor again kisses yo Crystal hope to visit you again soon happy mylotting

i suffer from headaches and migraines a lot because i work shifts such as nights and i drive around at night so i get headaches because im tired so i know that they are horrible. It could be your eyes though, maybe you could see a eye doctor it may help.

Try visiting your doctor again and tell your doctor that the medicine that he gave you doesn't work anymore. Try to have your eyes check also.

mtr, sad to hear about this. Hope you are fine now, some times i am suffered with head aches, but it is not a migraine. Take care of your health and follow the doctor's prescription to come out from this kind of issues

I had a migraine once and I hope to god I never get one again. Light, sound, smells made my head feel like someone was pounding it with a hammer non stop. It was so bad I laid in a dark room, no noise with a blanket over my head and didn't move for a few hours. then after it goes away I still had a mild headache for a day

hello cutie If that is really migraine then avoid foods that can trigger the pain. Avoid coffee and chocolate. Avoid sleeping late and avoid things that stresses you. Gosh,I have been suffering from migraine for a decade during school days :xxx Thanks, I was able to overcome it. take care

I haven't experienced migraine, thank God. And I'm sorry to hear you have to go through with the pain despite the medicine your doctor has prescribed. Maybe you should go back to your doctor so he can prescribed a much stronger medicine for your migraine if ever it comes back. But, I too am hoping it really won't come back and won't be worst. Take care always

I got unbearable headache after walking few minutes under the sun. This has been the reason why I got unbearable pain. I haven't gone to see my doctor yet I think it is also migraine. Even I sleep for a day or more than a day it doesn't help. I even took paracetamol.. The next day, after taking a rest and medicine, I was able to breathe.

I've know a few people that have dealt with migraines before, but I've personally never had one. I remember hearing awhile back that being online frequently can affect our eyes, and that could lead to headaches etc. I'm sorry to hear that you've been suffering with this. You may have to take more breaks away from you computer. Maybe get away from the computer every hour or so to give your eyes some rest. I wish I had more tips to provide. I'm glad you're feeling okay now though :)

Migraine, you should go to see the doctor again to take medicine for it. one more, you should take rest, and don't sit in front of a computer for long time a day. I haven't got Migraine yet but i used to get headache regularly. One day, when i moved to Korea, that headache is gone and now even though i go back to Vietnam for living but it doesn't go back to me.

Migraine is due to imbalance blood circulation in the brain. My doctor said there is no permanent recovery of migraine. I would keep some pizotifen and painkiller accompanied by some antacid like pantaprazole. Those are just consolation for me. So I decided to adopt the natural way to having a solution. As from my experience, I would follow the following steps- (1) At first let your stomach move regularly and properly by eating lots of vegetables and fibrous food and by drinking a lot of water. (2) if you have constipation due to accidity or indigestion. Never eat spicy, greesy and hot food. Better start to hate them instead of eating. If you have indigestion problem then finish eating leave some blank space in your stomach. Never eat until you feel hunger and have several cups of dense raw tea a day. Dont smoke any more. In case of accidity, take a pantoprazole 20mg daily for a month until you get normal. (3) if you have optical problem that is if you feel any headache after moving in the sun then consult an eye specialist. (4) if you have hypertension then consult your doctor. Try to free from all kinda stresses. Do some excercise like jogging will drive all stresses from you. (5) if you keep dense long hair then keep it short. (6) Never lead a lazy life. Do some hard work or do exercise. Dnt sleep at day time or dnt keep late night. After all, I think proper bowel movement is the key solution to being free of migraine. Wish you get rid of it.

Hi mtruguanlal. I have suffered from migraine headaches for over 20 years. I have just learned to live with them, but have learned a few tricks along the way. The most important thing to do for me is to stay away from computer screens and tv screens. There is just too much going on! Next, I always eat a green apple, yes an apple! It eases the pain for me. Another is chewing nicotine gum. I am a smoker myself, but many of us are not. It is an option, but if not an option for you, then regular gum also works. I do understand your pain, if all else fails, a nice cold cloth either over the eyes or around your neck also works. Lay in your room and keep it as dark as you can. Wishing you a pain free day!

Hi, I can understand the pain that you have experienced, cant move your head and even if you stay still the pain wont go away, I have that too. I finally end up vomiting and all. I don't know about the medicine that you just said, but here in India the doctor gave me Migranil, but still not that effective. This migraine headache is hard to control, I guess.

Hello mtrguanlao, You have to go back to your doctor and have it checked again. maybe the migraine is strong that the medicine you used no longer works.you just have to sleep the whole day after taking the medication. because that's what my sister in law would do. she also has migraine over the weekends of her rest.

Hi mtr That is sad to know that you have migraine. Well, I am unsure of the diets but in case you use laptops or computers for longer hours(you do mention that you dont, but this longer hours is again subjective) I see no harm in getting the eyes tested. My doctors said that my eye issues are not because of any weakness (power) but it is due to exposure to the rays from my Desktop. They prescribed me glasses and also some eye drops to keep them healthy. The headaches are lesser now. So I would suggest you to get the eyes checked and that should reveal if you have any dryness in the eyes/glands. Take care of your health dear friend.

I also hate migraine because my sweet friend hardworking girl was also suffer from this decease and now she is not active since last 7 months. She was telling she can bear this migraine problem and Dr. fees is more in USA so she cant pay this and from general Dr. her problem is not solved. Friend pls immediately concern the dr. dont make your own opinion.

Yah, join the group. I too had migraine for the past two days, felt like my head was splitting and any slight noise would trigger it. How horrible. I try many methods like heating a spoon of oil and rubbing on my head. I also take painkillers but only if it is absolutely necessary. Try natural methods also.

I guess migrane is already part of my system. I started to experienced it during my collage days up to now. What triggers it are stress, luck of sleep, and not able to eat on time. Everytime migrane hit me i just going to sleep and drink lots of water but if itis unbearable already i just drink paracetamol then go back to sleep. Migrane really makes you feel uncomfortable but i guess im used with it since my migrane has its own schedule already when to attack hehehe.. I've read some where that they still observing the main reason of migrane and how to treat it. We'll just wait and see in a few more years from now.
