Well some of you may know I have been getting these really weird head aches lately. it is a combo stress headache ( back of head) and migraine .... So Hubby finally talks me into going to a bone cracker... he takes one look at my neck and shakes his head and whistles... said I have really screwed my neck up it was stoved somethin awful ! so after about 15 min of massage to relax it then he "adjusted " it 5 times ! told me to keep Ice & heat on it the next couple days and come back next friday to make sure the adjustment didnt need to be done again... He told me I was gonna be real sore in the morning, morning Hell I am sore now ! so hopefully this will work. Hubbys cousin tried long distance Reiki healing, but it was a no go the vibrations just aggrivated it more. ( you can go to youtube and look up reiki healing and there is one to relieve your chakras, it has different frequencies. kinda strange) But the one with the relaxation music is cool. kinda made me sleepy, didnt get rid of head ache tho
Anybody happen to know when excedrine is gonna come back ? that is one of the few things that really help.,...

Yup Hilly Excedrine MIgraine, they quit making it back in december, seems there was a screw up of some kind so it was recalled. just wishin they would get it straight again and start makin it again.
As for bein sore, my neck feels like it went through a wringer washer, sore as hell ! but the head ache was a mild one this mornin and a strong cuppa coffee got rid of it.... Coffee the wonder drug who woulda thunk it

Back when I first heard of Excedrin Migraine, I was at wallyworld looking for the usual trio of pain meds. There was this young feller came up and was lookin frantically around fer sumpthin. I asked if I could help. He said he was lookin for the Miraine pills. I said why dontcha just take a tylenol an a ibuprofen and a aspirin and wash it down with a strong cuppa coffee? He looked at me an said Hell no, He couldnt take alla that. He finally found the excedrin Migraine and grabbed one and took off. I picked one up an read it. Was same thing I had just told him.

I later found some of them at the dollar store for lots less and kept a bottle in my truck for emergencies. Was handier than tryin to carry all them others. But ya, Gotta have some caffeine every day or a headache starts. And if one starts that caffeine wont take care of, then I reach for a pain reliever cocktail and chase em with coffee.

Just thought, Prolly why they took em off the shelf. They can get you to buy four items insteada just one. Gotta support the drug companies, yanno.

Well I got to lookin and found an equate brand that has the same in it that my excedrine migraine had, so I thought I would give it a try and yup it works just as well... hmmm go figure ! and costs about 5.00 less on the big packs ! But yup I usually have a cuppa coffee when I wake up . then if I have a headache I tend to drink 4 cups... But this adjusting he did still has my neck hurtin. mostly at the base of my head...

Sumpthin my old Chiropractor told me (RIP) was to roll up a towel that fit under yer neck. Lay down on the floor with yer legs bent up and position the towel. Then slowly straighten out yer legs. It will create alil traction on yer neck.

Will have to give that a try !
