Yes VikingX I have tried all of the remedies you mentioned...ibuprofen, anti-inflammitaories etc...under doctor supervision....unfortunately they all failed...i have now been prescribed a nasal spray form of pain relief (stadol) 2.5 ml bottle twice a month for my more serious attacks...and hydrocodone or butalbital for less painful ones.

i always thought that caffine would cause more headaches...i would love to kno how it works so i can try it :)

that is something i never thought of but it makes perfect sense

Wow...i will definitely look into both of these bits of info on migraines :)

AMEN :)

eliminate the cause...eliminate the pain

A bit to the extreme. and no I do not agree that a shot gun blast is a good way to get rid of a migraine

I have heard a lot of good info on Imitrex myself and have seen many friends benefit from it...Thanks AD for the info.

your welcome.

Yes of course if it is in regards to health and home remedy tips. I have no problem with Linda posting here...if I remember correctly she has contributed some good tips on this board.

no not at all Linda but this board is for legit remedies and tips.

I have to agree with both remedies....having dealt with them myself...at times I have said the exact same thing Cole mentioned LOL

And a gentle hug and loving words go a long way for whatever ailes you when you have someone who cares and loves you :)

so many awesome tips!!! THANK YOU Foxy Lady. :)

great advice Foxy Lady THANK YOU :)

EXCELLENT IDEA!!! THANKS :)

Happy Easter to all!

Yes meds and change in diet (waaaaaa i love food..lol)

i was out enjoying the beautiful weather :)

yes MRI normal....now i go see a GI on jan 27th

more waiting grrrrrrrr

thank you so much...im sure it will..just the waiting that sucks

im still hurting alot and now it burns too...having MRCP test on saturday at 3pm to determine reason for swelling...i hope

thank you so much for asking :)

thank you everyone for the support and additional info :)

no he does not have me checking my sugar at this time.

thank you Greg baby,,and thank you LongJohn it means a great deal to know im not the only one who ges into shock at first lol

ok what do you mean by fasting blood sugar...and i always thought that anyting over 200 was bad...never knew

no hystory of diabetes in family...last CBC for blood sugar was like 165 or something like that...that was my first concern when i heard insulin....and Linda he didnt mention pancreas or reason for CT until after recieved results....both he and i assumed was residual endometriossis pain or scar tissue

plus i have only dealt with the doc office on phone since xmas eve...date of cat scan...so havent had a chance to interrogate him as i want to

well i knew it had something to do with metabolism...but not completely sure...already had cat scan...thats what determined swollen pancreas...now waiting on MRCT scan...new test to detemine reason for swelling

gulp
i guess its a necessary part then lol

LOL Cole....i agree on the liver issue...YUCK

OK on serious note...If anyone can tell me the functions of the pancraes i would be much ablidged

hello everyone and welcome!! i am very interested in learning more about home remedies which stems from my mom who used a lot of them on us LOL.

EXAMPLE...oatmeal on a scorpion sting
