Yes its still attached and thats awesome but i need it now lol....
I know you're suffering. Only 2 kinds of headaches are difficult to handle, clusters and migraines. And if you ever experienced a cluster, you know why their kick mamed "suicide headache"

Settle down, debate if it's tension or caffeine related. Both an easy fix.

Glad I returned to reefing a year after my little one was born. My tank would have crashed and burned. I was not allowed to carry anything heavier than the baby. C section.

Truth! Pepsi, ibuprofen, and a glass of water chased with a hot coffee and then a Dr Pepper fixes most headaches.

Unless its a cluster.... at the beginning it can be cured with pure oxygen. If it's allowed to settle in... ouch...

I had to cycle between ibuprofen and tylenol in bad cases, 3 hours apart. My migraines were absolutely dreadful. Evetually a doctor gave me benadryl. That worked.
I was in my teens.

I did them 6 hours apart with a nap in between. When it was bad enough the nap didn't work it was time.

Valium helps a lot with cluster/tension headaches for me once they're bad enough that I just need to be knocked out.

I'm not much for medicine. I tend to have headaches frequently so if they're bad enough to warrant ibuprofen it's usually gonna put me in bed for a while too.

Don't get me wrong - I take like 1/2 a valium maybe 3 or 4 times a year. But when it comes to that point, it helps.

I'm not judging. Some people need it. I've never had it bad enough to need anything more than sleep and ibuprofen. I consider myself lucky!

Headaches are atrocious. I am glad we got so many ways to help offer relief.
