My grand daughter suffers badly from migraines, have tried all the usual suspects panadol, nurofen etc.

Any clever ideas?

blessings

do not use any drugs from drug dealing chemists

drink fresh water , not the tap stuff

distilled water is good cleansing

eat healthy whole fruits veg smoothies

no processed foods

no meat

use crystals ( christals ) to draw negativity and

dis ease

too much tv and those frequencies

delivered are decimating to your health .

Has she tried aspirin? It's better for migraines.

If she suffers regularly, there are preventative medications available.

I have no idea.  My Mother, in her 30/40s suffered with them, and almost (well....did really) became addicted to Bex/Vincents.  Dunno how she did it............but she did get off them, and the migraine issue went away.

I know exactly when I'll get one and why and how to ambush the bastard of a thing.

For no apparent reason, I'll get a light 'flicker' in my left eye.  Used to ignore it..........and then got a 'migraine.'

Learned not to ignore it............so ~ as soon as it happened, threw an aspirin down......no 'migraine.'

You know....early morning....not long after Sunrise.......as you drive along roads, if there is a forest to the east of you......you'll get that light flicker effect?  That used to trigger it as well.  No more.  I just cup my eye (which one depends whether I'm driving north or south) with the corresponding hand........and 'Bob's yer Uncle.'

many blessings

best not to drug children

next thing you know everyones forcefeeding them

anti ADHD drugs ...

you can hide the symptoms with drugs yes

yet the problem remains

further the problem may be a result from

over stimulation of tv media and wifi

look at nature, smell the flowers

I don't believe in migraines, but if i did, id cure it by taking something away, rather than adding medication to mask it.

after reading some of your posts Red, I'd say the best cure for her would be for you to staple your gums together .... imagine the peace and quite she could then enjoy

I've had the occasional headache, but never experienced a migraine. Two panadol or one soluble aspro seems to work wonders though.

Dehydration is supposed to be one of the main causes for headaches, but with a migraine - it should be checked out in case it's the start of something sinister.

The Westpac chopper gets me every time. There’s a heliport near where I live. Those bastards bring back the smell of war - smoke, sulphur, dirt.

A couple of Dilaudids usually do the trick. Get your grandaughter to wash them down with a Jim Beam and Coke.

If the quacks give you grief, get them off the net. Mine’ll write me anything, but I’ve got a thing or two on him.

It helps.

They are real.
A lot of people claim to have a maigraine when all they have got is a headache (just like people claim to have the flu when all they have got is the common cold).

The symptons of a real maigraine are, blurred vision, nausea, aversion to bright light and also a headache.

I always know when I'm coming down with one because I develop a shimmering blind spot in my vision. It then enlarges over time and I develop the other synptoms.

Luckily I only rarely get them but there isn't much that can be done about them. Apparantly they are related to a mild epileptic fit.

And is night time just a jungle dark and a barking M16?

Good one plastic Rambo... ;D ;D

OT - sorry can't help. When i get a head ache i bomb it with 4 panadol and a disprin.

Bloody oath - that one too. Those things give me the cold sweats.

You never get over it. Biscuit-licking pussies like you wouldn't have a clue. We had a name for you blokes in Nam: poofters.

You can't say that in today's army. Back then, we said it how it was.

No biscuit games in Nam, girly. Your punishment would have been a decent rogering by the men.

No worries taking a Disprin afterwards if it makes you feel any better.

Preventative medication.

In particular, beta-blockers.

Tell her to ask her doctor about Inderal (propranolol).

This drug certainly works for me (and many others).

I don't like the idea of taking prescription drugs.

However, in some cases they can greatly improve one's life.

In my case, Inderal has done just that.

Absolutely nothing would relieve the pain and symptoms of my migraines.

I finally saw a specialist who suggested taking heart medication -  Inderal.  WTF?  Heart medication?

It turns out that these beta-blockers can actually prevent migraines from happening in the first place.  They work for me.

Everybody is different, and they may not work for your niece. 

Best thing to do is at least discuss it with a doctor.

I take a very small dose, and they cost $16 a bottle.

They're also called Deralin.

Don't know the age of your granddaughter Baron....but my experience may be helpful.

I started getting migraines at 13.......flashing white dots, purple and green zigzaggy lines.......within around 30 minutes the nausea and vomiting started and continued every 15 minutes or so for around 6 hours. It was hell on earth.

Think I had 4 of these episodes before mum took me off to the doctor.....nothing she had tried had worked.

I was put on preventative medication for a year and I have not had a migraine since............I've sometimes wondered whether it was a puberty thing I would have grown out of anyway, but if I were in your position, I'd be seeking professional medical advice with your granddaughter and take it from there.

Did you know that the average life expectancy of a 60 year old has increased by only 4 months in the last 100 years?

That's right - when we unpack the misleading averages, skewed by infant mortality and war - all of the "wonders of modern medicine" have only extended our lives by 4 miserable, bed ridden months. 

Funnily enough, they reckon that quitting smoking adds not mere months, but years to your life.  So when you take the far, far lower rates of today into account, "the wonders of modern medicine" may have actually considerably shortened our lives, and undoubtedly lowered the quality of life.

But yeah, only a fool would doubt them.  It's not like they've got an agenda or anything.

migraines come in many forms, anything from a 'painless' aura (shimmering light) in the vision to a brain splitting pain that can put me out of action for 2 days.

My doctor explained to me that migraines are usually stress related - coming after the stress has passed and  the body 'over' relaxes.  Often the stress may have been days before and its not immediately obvious to be the cause..

The 'aura' style I might get every day for a week, and then not suffer again for weeks or months.  The important thing for me is to immediately take a 'break' and relax for 5 minutes.  It will go away very quickly.  Attempting to continue working will always make things worse and possibly result in one of the extremely painful varieties.

Anyone who calls a bad headache a migraine has never had a real migraine.  They are so excruciating that you want to chop your head off.  If you can remember the worst hangover you ever had, that doesn't even come close to a migraine.

My cure is to take a pill that is a mix of Ibuprofen and codeine.   Its available over the counter but must be requested - its not just on the shelves.  I take one of these the moment the aura starts and usually all is ok after about 10 minutes.  Since these have been available I haven't had one of those painful migraines for about 10 years.

But I must stress, migraines come in many forms and the remedy wont work for all.

And do NOT push you 'pure' ideas on others.   You want them to suffer the pain of a migraine rather than finding relief!  Just because you don't have migraines, don't put it down to your 'pure' living - its just luck.

Now i will accept that your advice might work for some in the long term, but I think this thread was about some IMMEDIATE relief.   You offered nothing.   You have made you point, now crawl back into that purified piece of shite you live in.

Well, I'd see a doctor. Ibuprofen increases the chance of asthma in people who are prone to it.  It's a really good analgesic apart from that.

People who have seasonal hay fever, sinusitis and other such allergic reactions could be affected by ibuprofen.

Headaches in children are not to be taken lightly.

There are sinuses in the forehead. Many people have mistaken sinusitis for migraine. It can be really severe.

If it is sinusitis, a doctor will give her something mild to dry it up. If there is infection (usually indicated by a fever), antibiotics might be needed to clear it up.  Finally, a nasal decongestant like rhinocort (budenoside) can give relief. It has very few contraindications.

Paracetemol elixir might be the best choice for the pain.

nd do NOT push you 'pure' ideas on others.   You want them to suffer the pain of a migraine rather than finding relief!  Just because you don't have migraines, don't put it down to your 'pure' living - its just luck.

Yep, and this is where Ibuprofen comes in - it helps relieve inflammation. Well, I'd see a doctor. Ibuprofen increases the chance of asthma in people who are prone to it.  It's a really good analgesic apart from that. People who have seasonal hay fever, sinusitis and other such allergic reactions could be affected by ibuprofen. Headaches in children are not to be taken lightly. There are sinuses in the forehead. Many people have mistaken sinusitis for migraine. It can be really severe. If it is sinusitis, a doctor will give her something mild to dry it up. If there is infection (usually indicated by a fever), antibiotics might be needed to clear it up.  Finally, a nasal decongestant like rhinocort (budenoside) can give relief. It has very few contraindications. Paracetemol elixir might be the best choice for the pain.

I agree about the doctor muso.  I was just explaining what worked for me.  As I also said, migraines come in many forms,  (in_the_light is another form that there is no medication for  :)

Inflammation is the bodies natural reaction to an irritant. 

Is it really "relief" to stop your body healing itself?

if healing itself is causing a migraine .... i would say yes.

of course, you would have to know what a migraine is.

You get some relief from scratching scabs off cuts too, but it still interferes with the healing process. 

What is a migraine by the way?

Ask an Asthmatic or somebody suffering from anaphylaxis.

I'm sure they'd tell me that the cost of interfering with it (uncertain) is less than that of not, (death) or words to that effect.

But migraines, aka a softcocks headache, are not even close to fatal.

The choices we make...

Blood vessels in the brain dilate and exert pressure on surrounding nerve cells ~ hence one experiences pain.

I never did quite understand that. The brain has no pain receptors I've read somewhere, and so ...

My grand daughter suffers badly from migraines, have tried all the usual suspects panadol, nurofen etc. Any clever ideas?

I don't believe in migraines, but if i did, id cure it by taking something away, rather than adding medication to mask it.

Decapitation? :-?

If inflammation is a response to an irritant, it makes more sense to remove the irritant than to mask the bodies response to it by adding another substance. 

It's like applying a band aid to a stab wound - with the knife still in it. 

There are heaps of ways they can treat migraines.  And migraines can be caused by many things.   In addition to the other trigger factors that others have listed here, women can have migraine trigger by even menstrual period - I heard its something about variation in oestrogen levels. 

At the first instance, she probably need to go and see a neurologist if problem is chronic and recurrent to establish the correct diagnosis (I have heard of people who have long term brain bleed or tumour been misdiagnosed as migraines) .  And then, she can have access to better meds like nasal sprays or preventitive medications. 

Hope she finds relief soon.

My aunty used to get shocking migraines & the only thing that
would stop them was an injection of pethidine given to her by her doctor. (this was back in the 60s & 70's )

There was a bad side effect:
It sometimes resulted in her leaving the doctor's surgery & vomiting in the gutter but at least it stopped the migraine.

I hope this helps?

After a lifetime of dealing with headaches of one variety or other, I have found that a little Paracetamol, a little Aspirin and a little Caffeine, at the first signs of a headache, to be effective. Having an orgasm also helps, but it can be hard to get past the pain. ;)
