I have a migraine headache starting first thing in the morning every day. Some days the headache is more severe and some days not too bad. Also, some days it resolves by noon and some days lasts all day. Overall, you can see it really interferes with my daily activities activities and just general sense of well being. Nobody wants to have a painful headache all day every day. I have found that I can reliably reduce the pain significantly by taking 2-200 mg Ibuprofen at 4:00 am and 2 high potency… read more

I found out about 10 years ago that red dye #40 was made only from petroleum oil. I made up my mind right then that I would not swallow anything with red dye #40 in it. The migraines I had for roughly 35 years went away and never returned! I would love for people to try not swallowing any red dye #40 and see if it helps them get rid of their migraine headaches.

I'm seeing a Headache Specialist who obviously is a neurologist next week. My regular neurologist has done a great job trying, but the meds aren't working and I'm experiencing several more symptoms quickly. I'm sure I'll need one. I've been poked and prodded, sliced and diced, and I've been ok. I'm terrified of the spinal tap. Can everyone give me the scoop on the pain, procedure, etc. Please be honest and straightforward.

If I am the least bit physically active outdoors and get overheated I get migraines. Even when I am in the AC, I will become nauseous and end up with a migraine if I get overheated. If my migraine gets to the point that I am vomiting, it is too late to treat with phenergan and 800 mg ibuprofen and I end up in the ER 95% of the time. Out of the 20+ years this has been happening, I did get 9 full years with not even a single migraine. I was getting Botox injections every 3-4 months from 2013 to… read more

I got the @piercing in my right ear about 4-5 years ago now. I had been having extreme migraines since middle school. Full blown light and sound sensitivity, dizziness when standing, severe pain behind my eyes radiating through my entire head , even down my neck. I would have to be taken to the hospital and given morphine shots to settle my head because 800 mg @ibuprofen , @advil, alive, even excedrin migraine and extra strength wouldn't cure it. In the 4-5 years I maybe have had 3- 4 bad… read more

Hi-I went to an allergist today after my primary care physician refered me after a weekend of migraines, hives and digestive issues. She thought it might all be related to a food allergy. I found out I had a few food allergies but the main issues seems to be that ibuprofen could be giving me hives. I take ibuprofen often and I have very sensitive skin. I wonder if other people have issues with it and have other OTC painkillers for migraines.
