I keep three of those gel-filled deals in the freezer at all times. They never really quite freeze. Mike puts one in a cloth gift bag and lays it on the back of his neck at the onset of an attack. It helps him stay cool and calm.
Frozen peas or corn work just as well. The reason these methods are better is that because they are softer than ice cubes and therefore pliable, and can be molded to the shape of the face where the pain is.
Just sharing war stories with a fellow veteran! :)
