HI...when I have a really bad HA...I will try OTC meds like motrin...and drink a coke with it....the caffeine helps get the meds into the system faster....
And like rrcross....neway to relax is best...stress adds to HA's...so a warm soak in the tub helps me....
I hope u feel better <3

Right now I take nothing. Haven't since sept. No insurance for a while. It has been horrible. Anything I take over the counter does not work and even when I had vicodin it only took the edge of the pain but did nothing for the pressure. This may be twisted (really wouldn't do it) but the pain gets so bad I want to either bang my head against the wall. I litteraly roll back and forth on the couch. This one is not that bad thank goodness. Its like playing russian roulette. Anyhow......thank u. I will take it easy today.
I know it hard to relax with a pressure headache. But try to find a place of calmness. What do you take at the onset of a headache? I can only sympathize. I hope your hole day isnt ruined from the beast! Try to relax, stress makes it much worse.
