Migraine sufferers: Anyone get rid of them completely or significantly reduce the reoccurence of migraines?

5

If so, please share how. I have been suffering from Migraines for 10 years. I take Relpax and it helps, but the side effects are scary–makes me very drowsey, light headed, and winded.

I get them once a month (and sometimes more) I have tried to find the triggers, but just cant get rid of them. I am already on the pill also. This is supposed to help, but either way– on it, or off it , I get migraines.

    Yes, pl see what suits you.
    If you are in cold country use all warm things.
    Pl try cold water bath and observe if in hot country, if pain increases use warm.
    If you have cough/cold body hot water bath will help.
    Massage and exercise in front of morning sun is good thing, pl try.
    Pl try simple acupressure given below for immediate relief.
    If it fails you will have to go for Acupuncture.

    There is hardly any medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for RA, OA, Back ache, Ear ache/ringing, Stomach ache and almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.

    Acidity, WORRY, sadness, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; drug side effects, stress, bad smell, TV & COMPUTER SOMETIMES, Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy, BODY CONSTITUTION etc are their causes.
    None of them can be treated with medicine.
    Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.

    Acupuncture is the best treatment.
    I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.

    Pain killers don’t treat the pain but we loose the sense of pain for some time; in that duration our body itself treats sometime and credit goes to meds.
    The useless drugs have tremendous power of side effects like liver/kidney failures, ulcer, inflammation of intestines and lot more.

    Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, tension, spicy foods, sour fruits, stale bakery foods, SMOKING and alcohole.

    Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits like dates, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help if cough is not there.

    But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves’ juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it is very strong.

    If it is acute pl search a painful point (with round tipped pen/jimmy) 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.

    For forehead/eye pain the points are in front of nails on the finger tips or 3-7 mm below.

    It may disappear naturally too.

    Heres what might help-

    Setting: quite area

    1- solve something hard (ANYTHING)
    2-run around, back and forth thats right, 5 minutes worth.
    3-sit down and rest a bit

    Thats what i think i might do.

    I’ve had migraines since high school, and started taking a medication last year that has dramatically reduced the number of headaches I get. My GP prescribed it — propranolol. It used to be prescribed for people with high blood pressure, but has been shown to be effective for some people with migraines as a preventative measure. I’m sure it doesn’t work for everyone, but it works for me! I do still get some migraines, but far fewer than I used to. I’ve even gone more than a month without a single migraine. If the Relpax doesn’t make you feel good, your doctor should be able to help you find something else. It’s no good to stop the migraine if you end up feeling worse, right?

    my mom has chronic migraines. she was put on Amitryptaline (sp?) daily. she said they DRASTICALLY reduce the severity of the migraines when they come. she still gets them, but not as often or as severe.
    you could ask your dr about that.
    good luck! migraines suck!
