I'm glad I could help somewhat (maybe ).

The bad news is that I know how TRECHEROUS and debilitating these headaches can be (and I have a unusually high tolerance to pain). I feel for you.

I get these headaches a few times a year, on average, and I have learned to listen to my body when they happen. There is really no way to get around them, except to take it easy.

The good news is that it should let up with 3 - 4 weeks, no matter what you do. However, if you treat the inflammation, AND you lie down a LOT, it makes the pain bearable anyway.

I'm interested to know if you are feeling slightly better after a couple of days of following this regime, or if you ever find something that works better.
