Plunging your hands into hot water, as hot as you can stand it helps drain blood away from the brain and down to you hands. It helps a little, and if you put something cold at the base of your head/neck it will help a bit more.

I was wondering, as someone mentioned the migraines being in the family and i suffer just like my Mother, if they really are a family inherited phenomonom and if there is therefore a specific gene code for migraine troubles?
Thanks for the tips about the cayenne pepper – i will order some in for both me and my Mother.

I also suffer from monthly migraines and as I get older, they get worse. I just tried the cayenne. I saw this in a magazine. I put a little cayenne pepper in the nostril on the side of the headache and snorted it. Wow, my eyes watered, it burned, but Voila, NO MORE MIGRAINE! I am astonished, wish I would have found this years ago.

The only cure I have found for my chronic migraines is to eat a completely raw, vegetarian diet. The raw fruits and vegetables have live enzymes which assist in digestion. I completely avoid gluten, salt and sugar which are my worst triggers.

I will certainly try the nose spray. I have had migraines for over 40 years. I had brain surgery about 7 years ago for 2 aneurysms and a lesion and, for unknown reasons, the migraines got worse. My last job of 25 years as a director in a local hospital was ended in 2007 due to the severity and frequency of the migraines. I take Imitrex and it works immediately; however, i was developing a heart problem and cannot take the Imitrex like I was (I was taking it 2 to 5 times a day and about 4 to 7 days a week – every time I had a migraine.) Now I am on disability and hating it as I am not a “stay at home” type person at all. However, having a migraine and no relief in sight, I just have to stay at home in bed when one hits. I will definitely try the pepper spray (gee, that sounds like the self-defense spray, doesn’t it?ha!) thanks for the tip
