RE: [nukkad] Migraine Remedy

["Srinivas Rao" <>]

I am not aware of migraine but it must be some cousin of sinus which I had
(and still have to some extent). The headache used to be deadly severe,
unbearable inviting suicidle thoughts. I suffered such pains since around
ten (am 33 now), every 4 to 6 months (worst case atleast once a year). Some
ten years back an ENT specialist suggested me to refrain from head bathing
daily - I should stick to atmost twice a week. I followed it and saw slight
increase in the interval by a few months.

One thing that surely helps, and that which helped me a lot was the
breathing techniques which I learnt at art of living foundation 3 yrs back.
I practised their breathing exercies for atleast six months. There was no
sinus attack during and nearly one year after that, whenevr I had it was in
a very milder form. I am convinced that breathing exercises realy really
does wonders.

Let your friend first undergo the normal treatment from experts as suggested
by Guptaji and let her also try the above yoga as it's always easy to
perform with no side effects.

Cheers
Srinivas

Hello,

a good friend of mine suffers of heavy migraine attacks (headache, nausea,
sometimes aura in advance)  once a month at least, each lasting up to three
days.She tried a lot of remedies during the past thirty years. Some of them
helped, but always only for a few  months, then it started a new. She tried
all usual pain  killing remedies, acupuncture  in combination with other TCM
advices and remedies, she swalows Petadolex regularly but nothing really
relieves her from this terrible, unbearable pain. She cares to go to bed and
get up regularly, she avoids all food items that are considered being a
trigger for migraine, all in vain. She told me that  she felt so desperate
two days  ago that she was about to swallow a handful of pain killers in
order to end up this drama. She said it was only for a second that  she
thought about it, but I am scared. I want to help her!
That's why I ak here on nukkad if anybody can suggest some more remedies.

I forgot to mention that she isn'T allowed to take  any kind of triptan,
because she suffers of high bp, and she has to take Betablocker, valsartan
and a low dosage of a diureticum daily.

Hoping that some of you may suggest any help.

Thank  you!

Carola
