  • it helps prevent migraine

    August,

    I try to avoid the caffeine, but have noticed it helps prevent
    migraine
    headaches.

    Might be better to investigate the cause of the headache rather than
    mask it.

    There are several possibilities:

    1) Working too long in front of the computer.

    2) Taking too many pain medications (the strongest I take is a 400 mg Ibuprofen, and I don't do that every day).

    3) A combination of a severe concussion and 2 lightning strikes over
    the years.

    Dehydration?

    That normally happens if I forget to bring a can of flavored water
    in, before I do my ham radio traffic nets. As Net Control, I do quite
    a bit of talking, and can dry out fast.

    2) Taking too many pain medications (the strongest I take is a 400 mg Ibuprofen, and I don't do that every day).

    Not a good long-term solution. You'll probably end up with a
    prescription for anti-liver failure.

    The main pain meds I have are Tylenol Caplets, and 400 mg Ibuprofen.
    And, I don't take them every day...maybe once a week, and only as needed.

    3) A combination of a severe concussion and 2 lightning strikes over
    the years.

    Oh yeah! I forgot about those. Wouldn't doubt that it would mess up
    your physiology just a wee bit.

    However, I carry no electrical charge, and can be handled safely. <BG>

    But, they did do an EMG and nerve conductivity test, to be sure there
    wasn't multiple sclerosis or something like that.
