      Hello Maxmom, Having had headaches since I was a teen and am 66 now I relate to your experience. Have you ever tried massage or acupuncture? Sometimes this helps to relax and then they don't seem to last as long. Hugggs! Carol

      Good Sunday morning ~ I do experience sinus problems with migraines, usually on on the left side and like you, thought they were not related. Have found out they are and treating the headache along with actifed helps. Sometimes for me it's a sign that a migraine is coming. Have a great day and thanks for sharing. Being new I would like to add you as my friend if that is okay with you. Peace, Carol

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Working / Worked
      It worked, but my insurance didn't cover the practitioner that I liked. You have be careful about finding the right one.
      Caffeine Working / Worked
      I'm addicted....so if I don't drink coffee, it starts the headache process
      Excedrin Working / Worked
      My first line of defense
      Fiorinol Working / Worked
      When in pain is "lingering" I take it at night to wipe it out.
      Imitrex Working / Worked
      I like Relpax better, but this works
      Inderal Working / Worked
      Hated the side effects, so stopped taking it.
      Magnesium Working / Worked
      Don't know if it works, but I take it every day.
      Relpax Working / Worked
      For sure this works, but it is expensive!
