2. It depends on if it's allergy season or not. |
|
During allergy season, I get tons of headaches. If I haven't got enough sleep, I get them, too.
I really dislike headaches - mine aren't disabling usually, but distracting enough so that I can't get much done.

3. I don't get them often, but I swear by Excedrin. |
|
It is the only thing that works for me. Kills headaches DEAD.

5. I don't get headaches, ever |
|
seriously. I have no idea why. :shrug:
Don't worry, I've got my share of problems. Headaches aren't one of them.

6. migraines. generally 8-12/month, but i've had one for a month and a half |
|
imitrex usually does a pretty good job, but every so often my body gets used to it and nothing works. usually when this happens, i get about 3 months of nearly non-stop migraine.
sucks, bigtime.

14. yes, i've tried nearly everything. |
|
feverfew is one of many supposed migraine preventatives that have absolutely no effect on me.
i am currently taking petadolex, coq10, and singulair. the singulair in particular, and i suspect, the petadolex as well, have both helped considerably (the last month and a half aside....)
at least the severity is not as bad as my previous lengthy episodes.

7. I rarely get them and if I do it either has to do with the fact that I'm |
|
sick or slightly dehydrated. I'm one of the lucky ones I guess.

8. Only when I'm taking a 3" diameter, mummified, rock-hard dump. |
|

I had one about a month ago, and I swear to God, I thought I needed to go to the hospital. I had rectal bleeding for about a week afterwards.
You all know what I'm talking about, right?? The kind where you push so hard, you temporarily lose your vision??

youch! - i think the headache is the least of your problems - maybe some bran or a prune now and then would help ;)

10. I Only Get Headaches on Those Rare Occasions |
|
when I sleep late into the morning and I begin suffering from caffeine withdrawal. After I get down a couple cups, I'm good as new!

migraines. Started taking topomax and anti seizure drug, and that really really helps. It was not that long approved for treatment/prevention of migraine.
