Throbbing ...

Gah - headache pain! The entire left side of my head really aches, so I think it may be sinus [pollen real bad, overwhelming the nasarel] added to tension, added to sleeping funny and getting a crick in my neck. Lots of pain - but not a migraine [yet].

Did some proactive stuff. Gil_liant did lots of neck and shoulder rubs [thank you SO much!]. I took a steamy shower. Ate [chicken noodle soup]. The effort to fight the migraine off is working. But there is still pain.

Ack, I'm sorry! I hope you feel better soon!

I find cold works for some really nasty headaches when heat won't -- usually I'll try a hot shower, and if that hasn't loosened things up then an ice pack (or a cold can of coke) will bring much relief.

[nods] Cold things are very good if hot doesn't work. Have you ever tried a bag of frozen green peas? [green beans also work] Very good cold - but not too cold - frozen feel ... and then you cook them ^_^
