Migraine remedies

And here I'll post a few suggestions I've seen in a thread on a forum.

1. Take a nap and sleep it off.

2. Put cold water on your feet and heat on your head (or the opposite). For some people this seems to polarize the blood and get it flowing easier, relieving the tension in the head.

3. The following teas have been noted to be helpful for some people: catnip, chamomile, peppermint, really strong black tea.

4. If you don't regularly drink caffeine, the following drinks may help: Cola, coffee.

5. Vitamin regiments that have helped others (may want to check with your doc or nutritionist before trying): Fish oil, magnesium, folic acid, vitamin B, feverfew.

I hope this helps some or at least gives you something to try. I used to get horrible pain and random sensitivities. I'd turn out the lights and put on Madonna's "Ray of Light" CD (for some reason the consistent flow of blue in the songs helped). Now it's mostly black spots and auras.
