Maybe get that checked what could it hurt? Do you drink alot of water cause dehydration can also cause headaches etc
I drank almost four full glasses of water yesterday and already drank my second glass today. I usually average 3-4 glasses a day. That was actually the first thought of what was causing these headaches, but we’re not 100% sure.

I drink about 85oz of water per day and I never feel like it's enough :-( what usually gets rid of my headaches is to eat protein, drink something with electrolytes, and rest. I know you don't get solid sleep...but hopefully those other two things could help? I have to stay on top of being hydrated and getting my vitamins to feel close to my best. I hope you feel better soon.

I’m only 78 pounds. I’m tiny LOL :)

Now that you point that out, I don’t think I’ve had too much to drink that contains electrolytes. I’ll have to remember that.

I’m 18, but I’m 78 pounds because I’ve been affected by cancer treatments. Stunted my growth.
Oh, I'm really sorry you had to go through that. I hope things are better in that area now, though?

Hey everyone! Sorry for not posting on the forums yesterday, I was planning on taking a break one of these days from the forums I’m on, but of course, life decided that was yesterday.
I once again had another headache spell that caused vomiting throughout the day yesterday, and I really couldn’t do much but just try and sleep it off. Probably vomited a good 5-6 times yesterday because of how severe the headache was and how long it hung on
My family and I are beginning to think that this is truly migraines and that I’m experiencing the true forms of migraines and that the headaches aren’t related to anything else.
Can anyone else who’s experienced migraines relate to what I’m talking about? Any suggestions on what I can do to stop these?

Well after waking up once again in the middle of the night with a pulsing headache and vomiting, I finally decided enough was enough, so I went to my local urgent care today.
Nurse practitioner believes it’s migraines and he prescribed me naproxen to take whenever the headache comes on in the future (if it does).
Hopefully it works :)

My wife has been getting migraines for years and has tried many different medications including shots. Turns out that taking Exederin Migraine as soon as she feels one coming on works the best for her. Just a FYI.

Well guys, naproxen did the trick!
Yesterday was still a pretty awful day, as the prescription got delayed at my pharmacy, so we had to wait a little longer for it to be filled and ready for me. And of course, I got a migraine early Saturday morning at 5:00am, and ended up throwing up bile since I had nothing in my stomach, everything was already digested.
The migraine stayed persistent throughout the day, finally the prescription was ready at 3:00, took the medicine at 4:00, and it cleared it up right away. Took a second dose at 11:30pm so that I could sleep through the night, and that worked too! Got a full night’s sleep for the first time in a LONG time! Super happy that it worked!
Super glad to be back! :)

Thank you thank you! Super happy that I finally was able to get it all resolved.
Had to take some this morning because I could feel a slight pressure in my head, so I wasn't gonna take any chances LOL.
