RE: migraines and feverfew

[Guest guest]

-

One pint boiling water over 1oz fresh leaves, steep

15 minutes. That is too strong for me though, so I

put about 2 Tbsp with 1/2 c water, 2 or 3 times a day

to keep the headache(s) at bay, or once a day

otherwise.

What a time to have a bad migraine. Bet it was

stress-induced. I got married once, recall it was

pretty stressful.
