I just had a bad bad migraine
and asked my buddy for some herb and took a few rips out of a home made gravity bong(I remember making those back in my high school days and I didn't have enough to roll a J) and about 30 minutes later I am not sick and irritated anymore for ****ing the first time all ****ing day my migraine is gone!!!
In fact I now have an appetite and can finally eat something. Haven't had a meal all day because the migraine was so bad it had me hovering over the toilet every hour. I used to take hydro codone for them, but that shit made me puke. I couldn't take the pain anymore so I had to find some herb to sooth the pain. Bayer, advil didn't help one bit and didn't want to take too much. I think I've found my help for my migraines. Last edited by Johnny Vegas; 12-23-2008 at 05:08 AM.. Reason: spelling |

that sounds more like a conventional headache than it does a migraine. ingesting MJ while you have a migraine can have the opposite effect.

I'm sorry, but telling me that it was a conventional headache is complete BS. I've had them my whole life, I used to be on a prescription for my migraines and it was the hydro codone made me throw up more often then just the headache. I've had the migraine since about 1 AM yesterday and its finally gone about an hour ago. Just so happened I toke a few rips off some herb and within the hour it was fading away. When you go blind in one eye during the headache it isn't a normal headache. Its a migraine.

I've taken just about every kind of triptan-based medication available for migraines, and none of them work as well as MJ. The triptan-based drugs can make you feel just as bad as the migraine with the dizziness and nausea. MJ eliminates the headache enough to where you can actually sleep it off instead of tossing and turning feeling your skin crawl and your head throb. No nausea either. And it eliminates the "medicine head" feeling afterwards. I would never advocate for people to go out and acquire illegal drugs. But I believe it when a fellas says it relieved his migraine effectively. Never had anything but relief with it. It's been the same every time. No bad results at all.

I can't wait to go to bed tonight. I'll get some real sleep. I stopped drinking gatorade/powerade and my migraines seem to have been triggered a lot less. Last edited by Johnny Vegas; 12-23-2008 at 06:26 PM.. Reason: to fix silly |

It can have a different effect each time. I wouldn't be surprised you smoked next headache and it got booming worse with dancing bananna's in your eyesite.

Coffee always works for me when trying to get rid of a headache.

When I suffered from cluster headaches (which, coincidentally stopped when I found out I was diabetic), one of the meds that worked for me was Ercaf, a prescription caffeine pill. It's a vasoconstrictor, used to treat vascular headaches like migraine. Cluster headaches are like mini-migraines that occur multiple times a day for a minimum of three weeks. From the age of 17 to about 23 I had them four times a year. The worst one I had was sitting behind my right eye for about 2 weeks. I'd completely lost vision in that eye, and if looking at the eye you'd have thought I'd ruptured the artery... the pupil was about 1/2 the size of my other pupil, and there literally was no white to be seen. Then... the headache switched sides. In a matter of about four hours, I'd lost vision in my other eye. I was completely blind. My doctor and neurologist kinda freaked - my mom came up to college to get me, the doctors ordered a CT and MRI of my head, afraid I might have a brain tumor. By the end of the ordeal, my doctors had me shooting lidocaine from a needle-less syringe up my nostrils, directly onto my sinuses, just trying to stop the pain. That one lasted for just under a month. I was out of class for most of that time. I found that I could take a combination of menthol pads on my head and a prescription called indomethacin and could function somewhat, which allowed me to do some of my classwork. In the years I had clusters, the only thing that worked for me all the time, was the indomethacin. It's usually prescribed as an arthritis medication. I had tried a number of prescribed narcotics, and they typically worked the first time. But they never worked after that. The indomethacin worked. |
