Cluster headaches or migraines
Cluster headaches or migraines
Anyone here have experience with cluster headaches or migraines during pregnancy and have any home remedies they'd like to share? I do not know what else to do. I can hardly keep my eyes open to write this post. I used to suffer from migraines in the past and in the last year or two I've began suffering from cluster headaches. My doctor prescribed Fiorecet (bottle said take 1-2 every 4 hours as needed) and for the cluster headache I had on Tuesday, I took one, 4/ mins later I was in bed asleep and when I woke up, it was gone. I was so happy to have found something that worked. Fast forward to Wednesday evening, got hit with another one, took Fiorecet when I got home (it makes me drowsy so I had to wait about an hour before I got home before taking it) I finally fell asleep after an hour of struggling and now, 4 hrs later, I wake up and it is absolutely POUNDING. I mean AWFUL. I have a cold pack on my forehead/eye area and on my neck, took another Fiorecet, and have a natural peppermint/menthol headache stick that I've rubbed on everything that it says to. Anyone else have any remedies I could try?! I'm desperate here. Thanks ladies.

I don't get cluster migraines ( my mom does though, so I understand how extra awful it can be). But when pregnant with my son I was completely off caffeine so having a coke often helped with my fiorecet. I also do cold on my head with a warm bath ( but never when alone, I was worried about falling asleep). Have you tried "biofeedback" where you focus on something else ( like trying to raise the temp of your hand)? That sometimes works for my mom.
