Usually, if I can get to the gym I don't get headaches.
But, I've been getting them a lot lately.
Went to CVS and got tylenol, excedrin, aleve, and ibuprofin.
I *think* I nailed down what was causing the headaches.
I noticed excedrin helped pretty quickly. I just thought of this as I was posting it. :D
It has caffeine. I have certain periods of days where I have huge amounts of coffee then just my regular morning cup.
I guess I just need to drink more coffee all the time. |jester|
Anways, do you have a particular headache medicine of choice?
Sometimes I just take like 1 of each to cover all bases. Fuck what doctors say.
WHERE'S MY COFFE DAMMIT?!?!
Kona..Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
PS- there are some good sales at CVS if you have one by you. I picked up the M3 razor for like $11 and change. It vibrates. Coool.

Water, only water.
I always drink water and I never get headaches. If I get a headache, then I probably haven't had any water so it's just to take couple of glasses and it's over in a little while :)

excedrin+tylenol...I can do that. :)
BTW, used the M3 razor 1st time today and it is quite good.

I usally try hard liquor first, but if that doesn't work then Extra Strength Tylenol usally seems to do the job :)

The razor is a big hit with hubby. You can get bulk blades at Costco. It does shave a lot closer.
Headache - It's allergy season - take an allergy otc med. Pseudophed is just a decongestant - you need something with an antihistamine in it for sneezing, itchy eyes, etc. If you take chlorphenamate - <sp?> it will make you tired.
The new "tension" headache meds are just tylenol, aspirin and caffeine. So, I just make my own.
I take 3 ibuprophen for headaches, but the best cure for me when I really get a bad headache is sex. Hard to believe, but it does work.
I buy the generic stuff, it's just as good.
Also, squeeze the fatty part of skin/tissue between your thumb and pointer finger really hard and that helps with headaches - accupressure point. This is just temporary relief, doesn't last.
Also, if you know someone who has a "real" job - see if they have "Pain Aid" packets. These work really well for me. The ingredients are:
Acetaminophen 110 mg, Aspirin 162 mg, Salicylamide 152 mg and Caffein 32.4 mg.
Did you ever see The Bird Cage with Robin Williams and that other guy - remember Hank Azarria giving the other guy his SPIRIN pills? and he said it was aspirin with the "A" scratched off!
LOL!
Hope you feel better.

I'm OK now- headache wise. :)
Locked and loaded with various stuff.
I have no allergies.
Yeah- can get the blades at BJ's or Cosco's.
Also, Ebay sells the shit like crack.
