I have had a headache since friday
nothing makes it better but sleep
and i have to go out tomorrow and be a human. idk if i can do it
i just woke up with the worst headache so i feel u
Hope you're feeling better today
as long as i don't move my head it is managable. if it tilts in anyway stabbing pain <3
but i did my human shit, now i can lay here and die
Get an ice pack on your forehead
got it <3 one on forehead, one on back
you get the headaches all the time, is it normal-ish to have one last this long? I was having bad migranes for a while last year, but they never lasted more than a day at the time
I've had migraine lasting 4+ days like, a single headache
Are you on a migraine medicine?
i;m on AMITRIPTYLINE for sleep but it;s supposed to help with migraines but otherwise no. will be telling dr that they are becoming an issue again and hopefully she will have some ideas
You may want to see about sumatriptan or something similar. The amitriptyline may help prevent but having something additional to treat when you do get them isn't a bad idea
ooh, nice i will ask her about that <3 ty
Any time boo. Finding a treatment that works for you isn't always easy and I hope you have some luck with it
there's a real big storm, so im hoping once it's over maybe it will finally pass
Yes that's also a thing lol
Try some chamomile tea if you have it, it can help
head has today to stop hurting before i go to the stupid doc/hospital
i sneezed and my brain exploded
well that sucks. mine aren't nearly that bad but my sister gets the laid up for days thing and it's the worst
couldn't get into urgent care, and not going to sit in emerg for 10 hours for them to tell me to take an advil, so powered through and tentatively think the worst of it is over
see my dr soon and will bring it up
I'm glad you're out of the worst of it but sorry you had to suffer through
still can't book urgent care, and i know i have an appointment with my gp at some point this month. pain is no longer constant, or if it is it is normal headache level and not migraine. but coughs, and transitioning from down to up or bending over clamp it RIGHT back into a spike of agony
Okay it sounds like there's something going on, yeah. Do you have any over the counter meds you can take to help?
just Acetaminophen
stores are closed today, but can try to get something tomorrow when i pick up my other meds
Do you have aspirin on hand?
no, but i'll pick some up finally
If you have to pick up anyway, just go right for excedrin or it's generic. If you had the aspirin on hand already is walk you through what to take with the Tylenol to make the equivalent at home
ooh, okay. i will go pick it up tomorrow and bring bear to help be my eyes
or maybe not, i am not sure we can get it in canada for some reason, not finding it listed on the online pharmcy
Keep in mind that excedrin does have caffeine in it if you're sensitive!
But it's one of the things that helps with the distribution of the meds through your system
Okay in that case get some aspirin and coffee or coke (the drink, not.... you know)
lol, that part is no trouble
ty for all the advice <3
Per tablet:
250mg acetaminophen
250mg aspirin
65mg caffeine
Recommended dosage 2 tablets, so double the above amounts for one dose
