Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I get migrains frequently also. I try not to take medicine everytime I have one. Let me tell you what works for me: It may seem kinda weird but everytime I do this I feel better. Put Vicks Vapor Rub all over your forehead and around your temples, kinda massage it into your forehead... after that get a wet rag and put it into the freezer for about 5 minutes, when it is cold fold it up lengthwise and put in on your forehead. It will make your forehead kinda feel freezing. But it works, I actually had a migraine today due too not eating anything until like 3:00 p.m. AND... I drink a McDonald's Dr.Pepper everytime I have a migraine, something in the McDonald's sodas helps my moigraine go away. regular Dr.Pepper in the can will not make it go away, I have to drink it from the fountain syrup and only from McDonald's... ( I know I'm weird!) Try it, I know the things sound weird and strange and I was skeptical about the Vick's Vapor Rub on my head at first also, but it is all I do when I get a migraine since I don't always like to take extra strength Exederin or Exederine Migraine. Hope it helps! Megan Garcia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
