Re: what are your favorite non-medicine headache treatments?

[(Anonymous)]

Shit so it's not just me? Everyone goes "no coffee means no migraines!" but I think that drinking less coffee triggered my migraines to begin with - my new workplace didn't have coffee and then I startled having BAD migraines ... Only helped by my caffeine drink of choice + ergot pills with caffeine?? I thought it was placebo effect though.

Caffeine is an extremely addictive drug and caffeine withdrawal causes awful, shitty, no-good, terrible headaches.

However, once you push on through to the other side and wean yourself off (tapering may help), they should go away.

Wow, thanks for telling. No one told me this. (Sadly haven't had coffee in years but they never went away.)

My migraines are kind of weird in that I usually get all the symptoms (aura, nausea, sensitivity to light/sound/motion, etc.) EXCEPT the headache, and when I get the headache it's a pretty mild one. But I read somewhere that caffeine does something to the blood vessels that cause migraines (opens them up for better blood flow or something?), and so it can provide some relief...

I'd been avoiding caffeine for years due to being really sensitive to it, and the possibility of it triggering panic attacks, but I stopped having those and week-long migraines after starting a severely restricted diet (not the effect I was hoping for, but I'll take it). So I figured I'd give it a shot when I had a particularly nasty one... and indeed, no panic attack, and the migraine lightened way up.

Of course now I drink coffee almost constantly because it helps my digestion, so if I skip a couple days, I get a withdrawal headache that feels similar to migraines but no other symptoms. :P

AYRT - Oh, yes, I hear it's a thing. That's great to know, and good thing you are doing better now! (Don't even mention restrictive diet... :( )

This happened to me when I got off caffeine. I never had migraines before in my life, but about two months after I quit caffeine, I started getting ocular migraines: a growing aura in my left eye until I couldn't see out of it for about half an hour, and about twenty minutes after the aura started I'd get pain in the right side of my head. Getting caffeine the minute the aura started would more often than not stop the pain from appearing, but once the aura started I just had to ride it out.

Strangely, I tried getting off the caffeine again once I started working from home during the pandemic.... with no migraines this time. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh wow. Funnily, every doctor I ever told I have bad migraines to, tells me to quit coffee. So I tell them that I haven't had coffee in years, even though I had it like water before, and they don't say anything.

Excedrin for Migraine capsules contain caffeine.
