Those suck. Some call them cluster headaches or eyeball headaches. I have been through mos of the headache meds. I was even on opiates for a while, which actually make headaches worse.Ive been going through the headache nightmare for about 4 yrs now. I get what my dr calls thunderclap headaches. They come on out of nowhere and can last 3-4days. I am in so much pain most of the time my eyes water and i throw up all the time. After countless tests,scans and xrays i was told i have a chiari malfunction. Basically too much brain matter growth relative to skull growth. So when the body sends blood to the brain there is no room for water n air to move out of the way. Caught bubbles equals tons of pain.
I havent tried shrooms in 15 yrs but i know sure as shit that percs and mj dont help it at all.
Ive been curious about trying one of those shroom kits i see online. Anyone tried those?
I watched the special on using mushrooms for them. I was considering trying g them for it. My headaches just kind of went away.
For all headache sufferers there are a few things gs to try.
Exercise to keep healthy and to reduce stress. Walking outside is great for it.
Eat a well balanced diet. Foods high in fat, sugar, grease, and spices are hard on the stomach. I used to suffer from acid reflux. I lost weight and got my stomach in check. I noticed some of my worst headaches were when my stomach was already bothering me.
Avoid caffeine. I know it sucks but it really helps.
Avoid alcohol. It worsen headaches.
Drink plenty of water. Staying hydrated can ease headaches. It is also good for flushing toxins from the body.
Get a good nights rest. If you haven't done it, drop some money on a name brand mattress. You spend a third of your life on it don't skimp. Also tap a nap if needed. Studies show that people that take naps live longer than ones that don't.
Quit smoking cigarettes. Its hard, I know. I quit just shy of two years ago. Your body will thank you.
If all else fails, drop all pharmaceuticals. Don't do this with dangerous meds like anticonvulsants. Most drugs have horrible side effects and cause rebound pain. The best I have ever felt was dropping pharms.
I got out of the military, got married, had kids, and gained weight. I ended up with high blood pressure, taking three different pill for it. Problem after health problem popped up and a new pill prescribed.
I know this may seem like a rant, I don't mean it to be.
I reversed the bad habits in my life and it made a HUGE difference in my life.
