[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 452829, member: 11791"] Can't help on the rages. But we deal with migraines all the time here... its better now, but we had to try lots of stuff to get there. The most effective things we've found so far are... - peppermint - either aromatherapy, or good old peppermints (small, strong ones are best), or peppermint tea - chamomile - usually tea - lavender - aromatherapy - ginger - look for "travellers candy" - fairly strong ginger, intended for motion sickness (also works with morning sickness!), and really kicks in against a migraine - OTC Motrin gel-caps (if it doesn't conflict with other medications) Migraines were so bad here that T2's didn't even begin to touch the pain - and there was no solution to sensitivity to light and noise - like, in bed for 2 full school days, block-out blinds on window, no light on, minimal interaction or effort on anything. Haven't needed T2s - or had a major shut-down - in well over a year. For any of these to work, though, you have to catch the migraine [U]as it is coming on[/U]. Once you're "down", its harder to come back. [/QUOTE]
