I don't always succeed but I never stop trying. Fresh air if only for a short time while sitting on my porch always seems to help. I also used to get horrible migraines and took a pill called Avert, not cheap but they worked literally in minutes for me. Hope you feel better!  |
Hi harleychic....Thanks for your thoughts, we need all the ideas we can get, huh? Sorry you've also suffered with migraines. Unfortunately I don't have health insurance any more, so I haven't been able to afford those ridiculously expensive meds for them (even with the discount I get from my pharmacy now, one of the ones I used to take....Maxalt....costs $348.00 for 9 pills!!) I do have RX's for a couple of the less expensive ones, but they're not really working much lately. Oh well....life goes on. Best wishes to you....
