I'm having pain on the right side of my head only....behind my right eye, right forehead, right jaw, back of head and down right side of my neck. The neurologist told me the other day that this is the first signs of migraine headaches. I also every once in a while have a very bad headache where I get really nauseated.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Sure does. As soon as you feel the pressure behind the eye take your medicine. Warm compress. Cold compress. Ice. whatever works for you.

Flooding yourself with water sometimes works.

Educate yourself on what triggers migraines, smells, diets etc..
look at your lifestyle and see if any changes could help.

Peace and strength

Sounds like 90% of my migraines. Everyone has different triggers and different things that help. Education is the key. Read about common trigers. Some common ones are aged cheese, wine, chocolate and artificial sweeteners.

When I get a migraine I have a prreescribed injectable I use. Ice, dark room, quiet and lie sown & try to relax. Everyone has different things that work for them.
