Migraines at 6w 5d

Migraines at 6w 5d

I have been fortunate enough to get to the 6w 5d mark but here is the problem I am having right now, I am having horrible migraines.  I have no idea what to do to make them go away or at least subside enough that I can get on with my day to day chores.  Also I cannot take tylenol for my headaches since my neurologist says that will cause a migraine cycle for me, which the only way to stop them is a week of steriod therapy.  Any advice would be really appreciated, let me know if you had migraines while pregnant and how often.  Thanks

I would go see a chiropractor if I were you.  Then you don't have to take any medications.  Iused to have migraines all the time until I went to the crak a practer.  And you can go when you are PG, my sister in law does. Just a thought.

i understand from reading much literature that headaches are completely normal at this stage; however, I feel i must clarify to anyone reading what a migraine is if you have never had one.  On my drive home from work today I have to pull over twice because the migraine can mess with my periferal vision.  I also rode in the car with no heat, it is 24 degrees outside today, because the breeze generated by the lowest setting brought tears to my ears due to the pain.  When I have migraine if i reach down to pick up something i will become horribly dizzy, often times if the migraine has last more than a few hours then I will have difficulty walking with out bouncing off of a wall or becoming incredibly unstable on my feet.  So as you can hopefully tell by the description I have given you migraines are entirely different than your average headache.  I don't mean to be difficult but I have had a migraine for 8 hours now and there is no relief in sight.
