Helen, don't forget my mother's classic: Have a donut!

Grin

And my mother still thinks that odd things can help me out. She bought me a jar of "Headache cream" for Heath & Beauty Fair few years ago. It was supposed to "help will all kinds of headaches and migraines". Well, I got a HA at the fair and yup, you guessed it: it did absolutely nothing to the regular HA, and it has done absolutely nothing to ch, migraine and other HAs. I gave it a shot, though.

So I am a bit sceptical now, too... Mom came back from Estonia on Sunday and brought me a small jar of "special headache oil". Apparently nuns from some convent had told her that it can cure (yup, that is the word they used!) even severe HAs. I'm sorry, but I really don't believe it... Grin

"You should go see this chiropractor - he says he helps people with that condition ALL the time!"

"Oh, yeah, I have those. If I get quiet and turn off the lights it helps"

"Smoke a joint - you know that's legal here for headaches, right?"

"Excedrin PM is the BEST for that!"

"There was a show on Oprah about that - you have to avoid chocolate and dim your lights"

"I had those! I got one of those bite blocks things because it came from me grinding my teeth too much and they went away!"

Yeah...waterboarding isn't the way to go Cool

I have nothing new to add really. You guys have covered it already. I know it's strange but because I was already seeing a neurologist, I got a ton of sympathy and very little crackpot advice other than the migraine stuff which never ends.
