Title: Headaches.
Post by: Kilroy on February 04, 2010, 12:40:16 PM
I was recently "diagnosed" with migraines, as they run in my family. They hurt like a ninny.

So I ask to you, NSF, do you get headaches often, from things other than hangovers?

I've never had a migraine before so I don't know how much they hurt, but I can easily say that headaches from the lack of oxygen have their fair share of discomfort.(yay asthma, and yay for not having an attack in over a year)

Not often, but when I get a headache I just down a few aspirin.

Never had a migraine and rarely get headaches. When I do get headaches, they're pretty mild.

I usually only get them when my annoying little sisters put their noise level through the roof, or after being on the computer for 6 hours. Usually mild, though I have gotten some horrible ones before.

Yeah, that must have been painful >_>

But this...

Basically, what a migraine is, the blood vessels within your brain get smaller for no real reason, then get extremely large, irritating the nerves in the skull and such like mad.

I was just holding my head on my bed crying like a little baby, it hurt so much. I'd never experienced such pain in my life.

Just mild headaches every now and then, which are usually just caused by dehydration.

I have chronic migraines also, I hate getting all the bad ailments from my mom's side  D:

They hurt like hell, & the medication does squat.

For some reason in the past 2 weeks, I've had a headache nearly every day. =/
I think it's just allergies or something.

I will get headaches when mad off or extremely tired. Sometimes if I haven't eaten all day, or if I'm sick a headache will pop up. A nap usually makes them go away because medicine doesn't seem to do anything for me.

This. I can't remember the last time I had a headache, actually.

I only usually get headaches when my stomach starts to hurt bad.
My stomach has been hurting bad for the last few weeks...  D:
