ic..... thanks.... btw, does honey do anmy good for u? thinkin wanna buy her some pure honey... but dsamn, too many kind of pure honey leh....

lowyat82, the thing is...if she is having migraine, n she is the vomity kind like me, nothing works...whatever goes in will comes out in minutes...lol....i've tried even teh halia (an indian aunty told me its effective...) but i still have to rush to the toilet 10 mins later...

improper sitting and sleeping posture will cause migraine too...
As for me i try to get my neck massaged and take painkiller then go sleep. Relieving the blood flow my massaging the vessels help

actually when the migraine hits you, nothing actually works...you just have to let it run it's course

the trick is prevention, or at least reduction of symtpoms - you know when it is gonna hit you - so quickly pop some effective painkillers or anti-migraine meds, then at least it won't be so bad

and if you know what triggers off the migraines, try and avoid it at all costs

wa.... then how????? y some people got migraine and some people dun???? then all her life also need to live wit migraine????

but i thnk she not always vomit, but after vomit, she sure feel lot lot better....

lowyat82: i'm not to sure y some ppl suffer from migraine n some don't...if i'm not mistaken, heredity is on of the factors...
i got it when i was very very young...i used to tell my mom my head hurts when i was like 6 but they would never believe me...haha...
anywayz, like what others say just try to prevent it cuz there's really no cure...some things trigger migraine, so she has to know herself....

Migraine is different from normal headaches. For people who don't suffer migraines, it's very difficult for them to understand the pain. So if the pain is too severed, it might be helpful to go the doctor for advice and better, for a scan. Will never know what's in the head.

i used to have migraine when i was small..till now even.but on lesser occasion now.normally i'll take chocolates...esp dark chocolates..cuz, dark chocolates will induce the release of dopamine,a kind of hormone to ease the pain.or i'll take ice-cream.havent tried the honey trick b4...does it really work?

so whats the major diff of migraine and giddiness / headache

in a short analogy i can say a minor headache normally will occur for about 30 minutes average, with a lower level of pain and felt all around ur head..

migraine instead, is a 3-4 hours of pain, felt in that 30 minutes time, all at once, at its own specific attack-areas...and sometimes u wish that u can prick a big hole in ur head to release out the pain or open up ur skull...

i can equally refer to the scene of Brandon Lee's "The Crow" in the ending fighting scene, where he grasp the bad guy's head and let that guy feel the 3 hours of pain, all at once....

maybe u could try pop in 2 panadols and eat something, then drink lots of water. it might be caused by dehydration. and ive learnt about some massages but i cant exactly explain it here where u can press on the pressure points behind ur head and ur back... u could try google it or ask some pros

but then...even sumtimes the massage dun really work.the pain just keep coming.sometimes i woul dhave migraine at the back of my neck..and wat i would do is keep on hitting it wif my fist...haha.

honey does works
i do take chocolate & ice cream
can say i take all sweet stuff

do more exercise.. because ur hormon not stabil.. hmm.. dulu i pun sering migrain.. then doc prefer i diet n exercise more.. mgrain ni sebab pemakanan n stress juga.. so.. u kena think what is the best for ur self...

try to use hair dryer on yr head
coz the heat will reduce yr migrane

this info i read from magazine

you may want to try out xango. PM me if u want more info..

Stop staring at the computer monitor so much

I used to suffer massive headaches (not sure whether they're migraines or not), turns out I just needed new glasses

Figure out what's causing the migraine attacks, stop it there. This isn't always possible as triggers such as stress are sometimes unavoidable in life. People who say, "don't take pain killers, they're bad for you" have probably never had a bad migraine attack.

There are preventive medications which reduce the severity and frequency of the attacks, they didn't work for me but I know many who have had good results from the meds.

hi guys ..
have enough rest + drinks a lot

hi guys,

i used 2 suffer from migraine 2 yrs ago, i cant stand very stressful environment or from cold to hot places or vice versa...this will cause me 2 feel a bit giddy then some head pain and then puke...

migraine is mainly related to stress and mind u not only work stress... anything that stresses up ur body...from work, noise, light, weather etc... d best way to get rid of migraine is by having a good blood flow especially around ur neck and brain area....

i've been taking a supplement that has has actually helped my migraine of 2yrs and now 'touch wood' i've never had a migraine attack since last july2006!

CHEERS!
