Headache

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone, I am sure you all experience that headache that just doesn't want to go away. It's not a migraine, but it sticks! What do you usually do or take to get rid of it?

I once knew a very wise woman who, when told about headaches always said, firstly, see your dentist, and secondly, change your pillow. Many times over the years her views have borne fruit, and I will never forget her words. Vera

If the headache or migraine lasts more than a week my neurologist gives me a dose pack of steroids and it's gone.

Ok this is off the wall. But I get in a warm lavender bath with only candles for light and I drink zero sprite with a shot of red wine in it low music playing in the background about 30 minutes and I end up feeling very good afterwards.

I take Hydroxychloroquine so I can't take Advil, my doctor told me to take Extra Strength Tylenol. It usually helps.

My cure is 2 extra strength Motrin and a cup of tea with sugar. I am guessing the caffeine and sugar mix with the Motrin is what helps it along. Works for me most days
