2. oil of lavender on wrists and pillow - not too much
just enough to smell. It's really helps with headaches!

8. This may sound strange
But drink a ice cold Pepsi at once! & not the one calorie stuff. Always works for me!

9. Caffiene usually helps for me
Marijuana used to (I gave it up a long time ago). Um, the, um (trying to avoid this getting locked) culmination of sexual activity (ahem) can help too (unless you're one of the unlucky ones who ends up with headaches from that. Or, unless you're at work. Wouldn't advise that either).

Feel better. :hug:

10. Gatorade. Dehydrated.
Drink a bottle of that stuff and you'll be right as rain.

17. Oh, ick! BTW, how old are you?
I'm sorry to hear! I've been somewhat prone to headaches all my life, but never got a cranial smashing migraine type until a few years ago. Nothing I took got rid of them, I'd have to lock the bedroom door and turn the lights out for a whole day. Couldn't even drive.

Then read Christiane Northop's book on menopause, and found out that's one of the symptoms. Don't wanna take hormones, I'm a vegetarian and will not see horses exploited. So I cleaned up my diet and made sure I got a lot of cardio exercise and it's really controlled the headaches. I think it's a good remedy, no matter what your age.

But for immediate relief, excedrin migraine works just great!

Hope you feel better.

18. Louise Hay says:
The best way to get rid of a headache is to...uh...well...can I say masturbate here and not get in trouble?

anyway she said it.
