Sinus Migraines

[blindhearted]

I have found Excedrine Tension Headache (they do have one for Sinus and Migraine...main ingred is Tylenol..I tried each to see which worked best) works good for me. I also got my doctor to write a RX for my dentist to make a bite splint that you place in the top of your mouth like a retainer and it gives counter pressure against ur teeth. That relieves the pressure some. You can get the Migraine Icy/Hot patches, they stick to your head so you walk around with a cold compress. Other than that I would just suggest when a bad one hits, stay in a dark and quiet room. I have to do that. Hope you get to feeling better.

Just FYI, the Pulmicort has helped a bit already, and the discomfort has seemed to move out of my cheekbones and closer to my actual nose (???) and has lessened. Interesting... <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I don't know about the pain in your forehead though if it is sinus related, as I have very small frontal sinus cavities. My sister gets migraines and she goes to bed and literally pulls the covers over her head for the day. Sorry I don't have anything better than that to help.

Debbi, I too have the same trouble you have. I take Imitrex too. I get a larger mg. and cut them into 3rds. Also, you might try that "Head On" for migraines.
Good luck to you.

I have had alot sinus isuses before finally getting my allergy meds in right conjunction. What works for me is singulair, zyrtex, and nasacort. Additionally to mention that since taking allergy shots and xolair I have not had ONE issue, and this is my worst season.

Things I found that worked for me a bit were sinus rinses if I was stuffy and pseudafed-sp?? sinus migraine which I used to live on--with a coffee did wonders.

When I was pregnant I had bad migraines and a couple things that helped me were to buy one of the flexible fabric ice packs usually in a walgreens rite aid etc and alternate that with a heating pad on my forehead, like 5 minutes one followed by 5 next and repeat. I also liked using sudafed shower soothers in small shower really hot with doors windows in bathroom closed but the shower soothers are ridiculously expensive IMO, I used to be able to get them from work cheap.
