Migraines

[skeet]

TIA's(Transient Ischemic Attacks) are what we used to call mini strokes. Usually don't last that long(5 days)...and there is usually a minor loss of motor skills etc. As one who has had a migraine or 1000, let me tell you they can last a month or more. When I had them as a kid we didn't have medication to ease them. Well . maybe valium or something. But we didn't have the money for that. As stated, dark rooms quiet and something cool on your head will really help. I can tell ya that what GOB said to do will help...at least for a little while..but generally it won't get rid of it completely. At least not a real migraine Nasty things!!
