tylenol - migraines

[Guest guest]

I get migriane headaches and I am new to all of this no drug stuff,

so excuse my ignorance. I usually try not to take anything...and at

the most I take tylenol when I can't stand the pain anymore.

Rest/sleep doesn't help because they hurt so bad I can't sleep. I

really hate taking any meds, even before I started realizing they

weren't the miracles drs convince you they are. But I thought I was

doing good by JUST taking tylenol until the migraine goes away...so

why is tylenol so bad. I also took it during my pregnancy because

that is when they occur the most frequently (about twice a week, not

during pregnancy is about 1-2 a month).

I guess my questions are:

What can I do to prevent/get rid of the migraines?

What problems can this cause to a baby in utero?

Why is tylenol so bad?

Are there any homeopathic remedies?

I can't afford a chriopracter, unfortunately!

Thanks,

I know it is hard when you have migraines. I had them too

I had migraine headaches - from 1982 - 1995 - terrible ones, every 1,

2 or 3 weeks and lasting for 2 days. They would always come on when

I had pushed myself too much and consequently had one whenever I

would conduct a conference or retreat or later international

tour. I tried everything - Chinese Medicine with a practitioner

using acupuncture & herbs; chiropractic; diet changes;

acupressure/shiatsu; candida diets; no chocolate; and on and

on. Mostly relying on an inhaler of ergotamine drug that would get

rid of them. Didn't know a real good homeopath at the time.

I finally in 1995 went to a famous MD homeopath but that was somewhat

of a disaster. No help. I then found a homeopath in my new home

town in the Sierras in California who was classical and within 2

months time I was CURED! Really cured. I've never had a migraine

since - 8 years or so now. I was cured in 2 months with 1 remedy.

See above - homeopathy it was cured me - consulting a quality

homeopath (not something you can do yourself - believe me I tried,

before I became a homeopath)

>What problems can this cause to a baby in utero?

We don't know because no research has been done on this.

Is autism related to that to a baby in utero, or tylenol use after on

baby or a combination of that and vaccines and antibiotics - any or

all of the above?

>Why is tylenol so bad?

See the info I sent before

>Are there any homeopathic remedies?

Yes, but requires consulting one when it is a chronic situation.

You can easily treat minor acutes and first aid, but something like

migraines is more tricky and needs an expert.

>I can't afford a chriopracter, unfortunately!

It didn't help me but has helped some.

Sorry for your migraines - I know what they are like
