At least it proves she has a brain which is more than we can say for Obama!

I used to have excruciating migraines. The best thing I found for it was Excedrin Migraine. Along with that I use a Nettie Pot or spray saline solution in my nostrils. I just use the saline solution now on occasion and I haven't had a migraine in 7 years!!

Thanks for the saline tip solution tip. I used to suffer from horrible headaches quite often, but have learned that most were due to certain foods. I will get a headache with the cheaper chocolate that has additives and is not real chocolate, inexpensive perfumes (they have chemicals instead of natural fragrances.), and too much sugar the night before. Certain smells will trigger. Stress can do it, too.

The # 1 culprit in recent times, is EQUAL aka ASPARTAME!!!!! It is poison, and if it is in a diet drink, I am doomed for a headache so bad I can't move my head. I have to check all labels for this. I drink Diet Rite soda now.....no aspartame, no sodium and no calories. It also tastes better than any diet soda out there, to me anyway.

For anyone reading this who suffers from terrible headaches, please watch out for aspartame in your food or drinks. If you must use artificial sweeteners, use Truvia or Splenda....NOT EQUAL!
