I'm stepping in late and having to make an assumption, but BSG, you were plagued with a migraine? My heart goes out to you. I used to get them a lot, and they used to be dreadfully horrible. A few years ago (I think about 4) I started getting them every day for a week and I was at my wits end. But I went to who would be my new nuerologist and she changed my epilepsy medication which very soon cut out the migraines (It turned out that my migraines were a form of seizures) within a week, though I still got them on occasion for a while. She also prescribed for me the pain killer Vicadin, and I found that to a life saver. I didn't use the Vicodins to kill the pain once the migrain started; I used them to stop the oncoming migrain before it began. As soon as I'd get the fuzzy lights and flashing in my eyes (which fellow migraine sufferers know is the advance warning of a developing migraine), I'd pop the pill and close my eyes for 10 minutes. The flashing would stop and go away, and the migraine pain would not come. My experienced guess was that the Vicodin calmed the nerves and stopped the migrain from developing. I also found that after a week of that, popping the Vicodin every day as soon as the flashing began (because I was getting the onslaughts about once a day), that I trained my brain. One day the flashing started and I announced that I was going to take a pill to nip the migraine in the bud, so I got a drink and was starting to open the Vicodin bottle, took a pill in my hand and was about to swallow it, when the flashing stopped completely. So I didn't take the pill. It seemed that my brain had come to expect the effects that wopuld come once I swallowed the pills, so without even swallowing it, my brain reacted and took care of itself.

Oy, I talk about myself too much, don't I?

My point is that it if worked for me it might work for you, bsg, and others too.

vicodin suppresses your central nervous system in a generalized way

feel better soon.

thanks I usually don't get them that often but yesterday's migraine was becoming a doozy. I was diagnosed with them in '99. there is a family history on both sides. When I feel one coming I usually run for the caffeine. My mom advised me to have chocolate in my purse in case I am out and about and start getting one to where I just have a bite of chocolate and it helps.

oh today ought to be fun got to get a new pot for one of my plants and some potting soil. My "man eater" plant has outgrown its original pot! needless to say its in dire need of a move to a bigger pot. I hope that it grows like the three we had when I was a kid. Mom had to wrap the plant in and around itself. We had what we called a "jungle". I never forgot the day my older brother took my sister's stuffed monkey and put it in amongst the plants and scared my mom.

Caffine USED to help mine Bsg. Now it just makes me NUTS.

That's great that your plant is doing well.

thanks. Had a bit of an adventure yesterday. Accidently locked myself out yesterday as I was leaving to go shopping. Grabbed the wrong set of keys. Had to wait at a neighbors house until hubby got home from work. I am carrying a spare now in my purse!

bsg1fan1975 · August 22nd, 2004, 03:23 PM

finally a nice day to be outside. Friday night we got severe thunderstorms here. Then yesterday we had planned on going to a fair in the region with friends of ours and their two boys. About 2 p.m. here its started storming like mad. Wicked thunder and lightning, heavy rain. At one point they had a flash flood warning for our area. Started calming down about 3:30 when we left to go to our friends. Well we got there and packed into their van and headed over to the fair. There had been so much rain that they had closed the fair down last night because of the amount of rain that they had gotten. So we ended up doing some grocery shopping with our friends and then ate dinner at their place. Today was a better day. Went to the church services and then the picnic. Afterwards, hubby and I spent a couple hours at the fair. And tonight I am relaxing in my home!
