    I get headaches all the time. Are you drinking enough water? Advil Liquidgels work great for me. Fast acting. Good luck.

    Are you hoping your husband reads this?

    Ugh, I'm so sorry.

    You know what sometimes helps when Tylenol/Advil isn't cutting it? Benadryl, in addition to the pain reliever. Preferably the liquid, children's formula, because it works faster. The active ingredient in Benadryl seems to be a mild OTC muscle relaxer.

    I'm trying not to laugh at this. I suspect the person who made this meme hasn't ever had a "bad" migraine headache.

    I took some advil, waiting for it to kick in. :) Just venting, because often times when I have a headache, I get tempted to eat sugar.

    I find that salt helps with my headaches sometimes, plus caffeine.

    Advil + caffeine of some sort works best for me

    I get bad migraines. I've tried this several times and it helps. I don't climb up on my counter, I sit on the edge of the tub.

    I had a monocular migraine about a week ago. Talk about a fun ride. I am pretty sure people pay money for that sort of thing.

    For those who dont know what it is, in one eye a portion of your vision will white out and then slowly turn into a kaleidoscope of colours, move around your eye and then outward to the edge of your vision and disappear. Lasts about 30-45 minutes. No pain for me, but some do get pain as well.
