..hi bard!! thanks for the reply...i tried feverfew years ago, not no avail  , ..
..i now have a nasal spray called zomig to use, but as with everything else, as you've used it for a while, it stops working as well, so i'm suffering big style....stress is a huge factor, as is insomnia. i need a stress free kinda life i reckon...somewhere nice and warm  !!! tenerife!!! ( if only!!) |

Sara, I don't know how long you tried the feverfew for but most herbal cures need to be taken on a regular basis for some time before they kick in! This is why conventional medicine often wins because people expect to take a pill and feel better and some drugs are that strong they provide temporary relief.
As for stress I was hoping for a quieter life here and actually it has gone the other way but I know that won't put you off this place and I am glad I'm here! 
Hi Pepperpots!

..bard, at least you're stressed in the sun!! i'm stressed in the rain!! 
..i tried feverfew when i was about 13, for about 18 months ( at the suggestion of my g.p. who wanted to try the natural approach before having to give in to conventional meds.)...no effect whatsoever... 
...migraines are a pain (! excuse the pun) in the butt...i can't drive, drink, eat, lie down , stand up, sit down, every position hurts...and i look a prat 'cos i have to wear my sungigs even when the sun isn't out.......awwww, don't you all feel sorry for me??? hopefully by tomorrow the worst will be over and i can get back to being my normal ( !) self...ha! ha! ha! |

I took one heavy travelling bag packed full to the weight allowed and a guitar as extra baggage and posted some books and records over and that was it!
