[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 527484"] I have a suggestion about easy child 1's migraines. I've suffered from headaches/migraines since I was young. I spent MANY days after school just lying on the couch, with a cold cloth over my eyes in hopes of getting the pounding to stop. Can you son swallow a pill? I've read that the National Headache Foundation suggests a few things that might help, and they are vitamins and/or supplements. What has helped me is taking 500 mgs. of magnesium and 400 mgs. of vitamin B2 a day. Since easy child 1 is a child I would maybe give him a smaller dose, but these have actually made an incredible difference. A friend of mine also takes something called feverfew (I had never heard of it, but she said it was an herb that you can get at the health food store) and that CoQ10 is supposed to help as well. If you start anything, give it a few weeks to build up the levels in his body and see if it works. Like I said, having been a kid who suffered through headaches I know how bad they can be. I hope you are able to find some relief for him. I also understand how you feel about your difficult child. There are truly days when my difficult child grates on my very last nerve, too. Some days everything out of his mouth is mean, nasty, or just downright disrespectful. Patience can be so hard to find. I, too, have been guilty of telling him to just shut up, but that's usually when he's been going on and on and just won't give it a rest or leave me alone. Not that I'm saying that it's right, but I do understand. [/QUOTE]
