i know this sounds crazy but as soon as i feel the shadows i get into the shower and as hot as i can stand it i let the water beat on that spot on my neck where the shadow starts and my temple for about 10 minutes, after i put mineral ice on my neck and muscles around the back of my neck, also i put it on my temple. the real mineral ice, not sports cream or nothing like that the real mineral ice, it burns like hell on the temple but 5 out of 5 times it has aborted the headache, i know it sounds crazy but i swear it works, and even when the shadows get into a mild headache the burning on the temple is a great distraction.
