I wanna go HOME!!!!!

I have a killer migraine.... I am the only one in the office and I wanna go home!!!!!!!!! :\\\'( :\\\'( :\\\'( :\\\'( :\\\'(

I have taken the magic pill and am waiting for it to work...but as of yet it isn't and I want more than anything to curl up in bed and go to sleep!!!!

less than two hours to go!

Aw, MeShell!  Hope you feel better soon.

Remember, at least you are not pregnant.   

2 hours and 15 minutes..................don't know if I can keep my eyes open that long...and I am suppose to go home and paint!!!

Finally got the paint in we need to finish the dining room....DH is staining the floor at this moment....fumes aren't going to help much.........


THIS is very true.............Poor expat....I'm sure you will sprog sooner or later..........preferably sooner....lol

A friend of mine who suffers from migraines says that taking a teaspoon of cider vinegar as soon as she feels one coming on helps a LOT. Hope you feel better soon Meshell!

Thanks for the idea Courtney...


mine are hormonal.....do to fluctuation estrogen.....and since my cycle is all over the place....if I am really heavy...no cycle no shifting hormones...I lose weight cycle starts again and fluctuation hormones...and migraines..........

It's almost worth being heavy not to have to deal with them cause they make me so sick and the next day I'm so tired and it is hard to think....

Hers are hormonal as well and wipe her out. My heart goes out to anyone who has to deal with migraines! Hang in there!

Headache Remedies From Touchpoint Reflexology:

Do you have a headache? Rub, pinch gently, "worry" your big toe and/or your thumb. Work on the entire thumb or big toe, paying special attention to the "stem" of each. (If the big toe was a mushroom, the joint with the nail would be the cap, and the lower portion would be the stem) This will help a headache caused by neck tension.

Is the headache caused by sinus problems? Rub the top joint of each finger to clear them.

Place your hands along your sides as you stand. Where your middle finger reaches, dig in. Where your middle finger falls, along the side of your thigh is a spot that when you dig in and rub, you can feel to be quite sensitive. Hold it for a count of 7, release for a count of 7. Keep repeating until the point no longer hurts or until pressing it relieves yout headache. This is for the kind of headache caused by too much fat in your diet or too much sugar.

Now find a point along the inside of the thumb bone that is in the webbing - the inside of the lowest bone of the thumb. In the narrowest portion of the thumb, in the webbing, but pressing INTO THE BONE, is a superior headache-removing spot. Hold this spot as you breathe evenly and deeply. Your headache will be gone sooner than if you took Tylenol!

Also, rub the spots at the back of your neck, on both sides of the spine, especially at the base of the skull on those hard, tight muscles.

Place one hand across your forehead as you place the other hand on the sore headachy area. Hold it there and you will soon find the headache gone. (This is a good remedy for any pain - one hand on the forehead, the other on the pain).

And best and most important, drink a glass of water at the first signs of a headache. Dehydration causes a multitudre of problems including headaches, fatigue, inability to concentrate, tired or burning eyes and much more. A good test for dehydration - gently pinch your nose. If it is "tacky" or "sticky" you are in need of H2O.

Hope you feel better soon... headaches are the worst!      x x x

MeShell, so sorry you're not feeling well.  Hope it goes away soon!

The magic pill is starting to kick in...so I am feeling alot better....

what do you take?  Advil is my magic pill.  Glad you are feeling better!!

mine is prescriptive.....My headache is now gone!


it is called Maxalt Melt (rizatriptan) it is a pepperminty tasting wafer that melts on your tongue....it takes about 2-3 hours to kick in but now it is gone.....


I tried another one a couple of months ago and it didn't work as well this one is much better...........

I was always told to pinch the web between your thumb and first finger, hold it hard enough so it hurts, but is not unbearable, and hold it for about a minute, believe it or not, it works for me!!

this happened to me too the other day.

i had to tie my scarf around my eyes on the bus and keep my eyes closed for the ride home

it sucked!
