Anybody got good tips for recovering from a migraine? I had another one yesterday and the post-drome (i.e. post pain phase) just won't quit. I feel like a rag doll. So, any good recovery tips?

    when i get migraines i take naproxen and then lay down in a dark room with a wash cloth over my face or go to the chiopractor.

    Oh, had one for 2 days this week. Only thing that works for me is Excederine, laying in a cool dark room and either Cola or chocolate.

    lie down in a dark, quiet room and try to sleep it off.

    i have them on again off again...i recently took my sisters advice and use heat
    i heat up a heating pad and use it on the back of my neck / lower head and try to lie in the dark room..
    it has about a 50/50 success rate but its better then anything else i've tried

    Water.
    I had a day like this, this week.
    Bad migraine Wednesday and Thursday was like walking around with weights on all my limbs and head!
    I felt better by about 3pm - I'm a teacher and so had to keep going.
    I think you just sometimes have to wait.
    Walking about, drinking water, fresh air if possible usually helps me eventually.
    best of luck with them.
