Boy did I have an awful night last night.

Immediately after dinner I started to feel nauseous, and had the beginnings of a headache. I figured I was dehydrated and started downing glasses of water. At first, I felt sortof OK, but if I got up and moved around my head would start throbbing.

At 11:30, I had downed many glasses of water, as much as I could drink without throwing up, and it was worse! I took some aspirin then, it felt like my head was splitting. I'd hold my hands on it to hold my brains in, and ecurbh put his hands on it too, because it seemed to feel better. I woke up still splitting at 2:00 and took more aspirin.

Is this what a migraine is? I've never had one, and I don't want another.

Mornin everyone.

Hair - it isn't possible that you may be PG, is it?

Not to scare ya, chica - but I only felt ill at night and couldn't drink water to save my life. Only crushed ice.

And please don't take any more aspirin if there is a chance you may be. It's dangerous.

Kinda sounds like one... the nausea and the sudden onset.

Was the pain more focalized on one side of your head or the other? Were your eyes sensative to the light?

Those symptoms and the nausea are the symptoms of migraine.
