:( I'm just about ready to bash my head in with the claw side of a hammer! For the last two weeks I've had a terrible migraine that just won't quit. Ps tylenol SUCKS! I've been taking excedrin migraine which helps for about and hour then all over again my head starts to pound. Everything bothers me, sound light movement even smells... EVERYTHING is bothersome!!! Any home remedies, I will try almost anything even willing to naw off my arm to distract me from this agony!

    I have suffered with migraines since I was little. Doctors said I was too young for the meds., an old kady recommended pouring vineger on a face towel and plcing it across my forehead. I would lay down with it cause the pain was horrible. When I woke up the migraine was gone,but I seriously smelled like vineger

    I had them aweful! I couldnt move they were so bad! Solution? WATER! And lots of it! If you dont like water, get flavored or drink gatorade instead. When youre pregnant its crazy how much water you need, over a gallon a day! Im willing to bet it stops your headaches!

    I feel just like you. I keep telling my hubby to just knock my butt out already. Lol when I get these migraines I can't even lift my head up and sometimes they last for days then go away for a few hours and bam its right back. Everything aggravates it. I drink nothing but water so I know its not that. What do we do??? Ps yes tylonol SUCKS!

    @Monica ... that kind of sounds a bit like what my grandmother used to do for me when I was a little girl, except it was rubbing alcohol she used. Turns out she uses rubbing alcohol for just about everything, she even puts it into cool baths in order to help reduce fevers. Your method may sound a but silly but its def worth a try, thank you!

    @Rissalee7 ... I've heard that caffine can help and I've tried it sadly I'm one of the unfortunate ones it doesn't work for but thank you.

    @DueMay10 ... yea dehydration can def cause massive heardaches I just think back you my young party days and hangovers hehe. But all I drink is water probably 7 or 8 bottled waters a day and a glass of milk gets thrown in there at times too. Thank you though.

    @KerrideeRN ... I'm just about bothered enough with this pain to ask for something from the doctor thanx a bunch my next appt is on the 7th I hope I make it to then :)

    @wallieheadbaby3 ... we are in the same boat, I'm going to try everything and let you know what helps. Good luck with the brain pain!

    @SamiUK ... let me know if they work I will rushing to the drug store to pick them up if they do. Good luck feel better !

    Thank you all I will try all your remedies and get back to everyone :) xo~ME

    Try a lil bit of coca cola. ive been suffering from migraines since i was 5. Now my 6 yr gets them. If caffeine doesnt help, try the pressure point in ur hand. Between ur index n thumb (in the web like area) like pressing on the nerve n rubbing it with lotion. Ive been using the pressure point for a few mths instead of taking ne thg and it works like a charm. Hope it helps!
