I've got a migraine and it's been over 48 hours. I've tried a trick my dad told me, which is to put my feet in very hot water/cold water, to see if it's from vasso-dilatation or vasso-restriction. the ice water makes it worse, the hot water better: vassorestriction caused. however, the relief only lasts about 10 minutes and the NSAIDs I have don't even touch the sides of the pain. If I do manage to get some sleep, I dream about my brain getting razor cuts. I will be seeing the doctor in the morning but I was rather hoping anyone had any more/tricks suggestions (no nausea, just blurred vision, kicking pain, side of face/teeth/sinus/back of head) - ? I've not been able to "rest" because I've had it about 60 hours now and I do have to get on with things and the pain is becoming a bit surreal (and yes dark does help but doesn't stop it).

I'll be able to call the doc's in about another 6 hours.

suggestions anyone?
