How to get rid of headaches! Migard tablets (feat. my prevention methods) for stubborn migraines

 

 

I have suffered from headaches a lot since I was young.
Both parents frequently suffer from headaches.
Of course, everyone thought that was the case.
But it wasn't like that.
I realized that each person has their own particularly painful areas.
I found out that my family members suffer from frequent headaches.
When I was very young, it was just overall headaches.
So I would take something like Gevorin to calm myself down.

 

 

However, migraines that began around middle school.

As I got older, the frequency and intensity also increased.
It has become very severe since I started working.
After giving birth, I was okay for a while.

I started experiencing it regularly from some point.

It is not originally periodic.

It appeared intermittently depending on my condition or physical state.
I took iron supplements because I heard they help prevent it, but...
It was okay for a month or two, but then I started having frequent migraines again.

 

 

 

 

 

There are various types of headaches.
Tension headaches, migraines, medication-induced headaches, caffeine withdrawal headaches, etc.

Personally, the disease called headache

It really seems like a painfully annoying illness.

Because the most important part of our body, the head and brain, are hurting.

I am someone who has experienced everything from mild tension headaches to more severe ones.

The most painful thing is migraines.

 

 

A migraine is simply a headache that occurs on one side of the head.
I am suffering from left-sided migraines.

When a migraine starts, it hurts so much that it feels like my eyeballs are being pulled out.
When it worsens, tears flow continuously from my left eye even when I am just sitting still.
My left ear hurts, and the pain runs down my left neck to my shoulder.
It can be understood that the pain is mainly in the upper left part.
Especially when my eyes hurt, even when I try to sleep and close my eyes
It hurts like my eye muscles are pulling, so I can't even tell if I have a symptom.
So, just because it's swelling, does it mean it doesn't hurt?

That's not it either.
If the pain gradually worsens, it continues to hurt for about three days.
Dizziness and nausea symptoms also occur.
They also tend to overreact to light or sound.

 

 

I experience migraines about two to three times a month.
I experience it periodically once in a while.
They are suffering from menstrual migraines.
During menstruation, either at the start, during the period, or immediately after it ends
Migraine occurs.

 

 

 

 

 

What is my way of coping with migraines?
As mentioned in the title, I am taking Migard tablets.
Migard tablets are medication prescribed while attending the neurology department at a university hospital.

(It probably won't work at a general neurology clinic or pharmacy. I'm not sure, though.)
I was taking medication prescribed by the neurosurgery department before.
How many pills did you take, and after taking them, you felt dizzy and vomited.

Still, I do not take that medication.

Things like Geborin or Tylenol don't work at all.

I had no choice but to continue taking it.

At the beginning of COVID-19, when a cerebrovascular dissection occurred
I went to the neurology department of a university hospital.

The professor looked and told me not to take any neurosurgery medication.
It was prescribed excessively...
Meanwhile, he prescribed me Migaard tablets.

 

 

 

Migraine has warning signs before it begins.
Oh.. it seems like it's about to start soon?

My head will hurt soon.
They said to take it when there are such early symptoms.

Just a small pill visible in the picture

Take it on time, and migraines will be over!!

It is said that taking medication after a migraine has started is useless.

 

 

Don't feel burdened about the medication; just take it.
They said that sending them without pain is less stressful and better.

I endured because I couldn't take medication during pregnancy.

I have experienced difficulty after suffering from a migraine for more than three days.

Missed the timing to take the medication even when not pregnant.

Even after taking medicine, it didn't work, and I experienced pain for three days straight.

Rather than suffering and stressing out all day long

It's better to take medicine and avoid pain.

 

Migard tablets regulate vascular tone to lower blood pressure,

It is said to help prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Since I tend to have high blood pressure, it would be appropriate to use it properly.

The general dosage is to take it once a day.

However, in cases where there is no effect after taking it once,

You can take one more pill three hours after the initial dose.

In case you need to take it one more time anyway

You need to take it after 24 hours.

It can be taken about one more time, but

It means nothing to take more later.

Both the professor and the pharmacist must strictly follow the prescribed method of taking the medication.

They strongly urged me.

 

 

 

 

There are various types of migraine medications.
The effectiveness of medication varies from person to person.
However, I found that the medication effect of this Migard tablet works really well for me.

Migard tablets are a type of triptan-based migraine medication.
When experiencing prodromal symptoms, take Migard tablets.

If you take one pill, you'll feel better after a few hours.
However, if you take it without eating
I am experiencing vomiting symptoms or dizziness.
Therefore, it is essential to eat before taking the medication.

You mentioned earlier that you also suffer from menstrual migraines.
This is ultimately a hormonal headache.
Since my menstrual cycle is regular

Since it's easy to identify the date, align it with the menstrual period.
They said it's okay to take it as a preventive measure in advance.
She told me to take one pill a day starting a week before the beginning of my period.
I tried that method too, but it didn't work for me.

Eventually, I was about to get a migraine when my period started.
I chose the method of taking it.

When I mentioned it to the professor, they said it wasn't suitable for me.

Let's take it when the warning signs of a migraine appear.

When receiving regular check-ups every three or four months

You are prescribing multiple packets of Migard tablets.

Because I think that taking medication is not always a good thing.
I wonder if it's okay to keep taking medication like this, but...
I think it's a great relief just to know that there is medication suitable for me.
Some people have tried various headache medications.
There are also people who are having a really hard time because things don't fit properly.

 

 

 

 

 

So, do I just endure by taking medication?
That's not it.
I also try my best to avoid suffering from migraines.
I have my own method.

 

 

 

The first is to exercise.

I do yoga and stretching.
Migraines can be caused by hormonal changes, neurological factors, and others.
It can also occur due to posture issues.
It's a story I heard from the professor.
Headaches caused by posture issues
It's a bit different from a typical migraine, but the symptoms are quite similar.
Anyway, it's a similar kind of pain.
They told me to pay attention to maintaining proper posture.

Isn't the biggest problem for modern people their smartphones and computers?
Turtle neck, cervical disc herniation caused by that.
The common symptom of turtle neck and cervical disc issues is headache.
For posture correction, as I mentioned earlier
Yoga and stretching are recommended.
They say Pilates is good too.
I haven't learned it, so I can't do it well.

Playing YouTube videos at home

Every morning, I do it at least 3 to 4 times a week for more than 30 minutes.
I'm not very good at it, but I have practiced yoga for quite a long time.
Parts that require strength but are not flexible

I do know the parts that should be focused on in posture.
So, through the YouTube teacher

I am finding and doing suitable yoga poses.
I've tried searching for and doing many different things, but...
Sori Yoga Teacher is just right for me.
After performing movements focused on the shoulders and neck
I can feel my hunched back straighten and my raised shoulders lowering.
When my shoulders tense up, I get a headache.
Try stretching with movements focused on your shoulders, neck, and back.

 

 

 

 

 

The second is zoning out.

Because I am naturally a sensitive person.

Because I am sensitive, even the professor

They said that it causes more migraines.

So, the method you recommended to me is to do nothing.

They told me to run without thinking at all.

Professor, he said that he has a very similar temperament to mine and has changed a lot.

They say that when you run, your thoughts disappear.

They said it's a win-win situation because you lose weight at the same time.

 

But I said I wasn't confident in running.

They recommended zoning out.

Especially going out into nature a lot

He told me to sit without thinking and watch nature.

Coincidentally, I had just started going camping.

When camping, I light a fire and enjoy fire gazing.

Chatting happily together amidst nature

Sometimes you look out at the distant sea and mountains.

Camping is also one way for me to prevent headaches.

Recently, I haven't been able to go often for various reasons.

Doing nothing, zoning out

I will try to be more careful and put in more effort.
