awww I'm sorry!!

My friend Lauren was having similar problems. She went to the dr. Turns out she had a lot of mucus and her ears needed to be cleaned out too. You may want to try that.

You probably have severe allergies.

Especially if the headaches are seasonal.

I've had migraines since I was 8 or 9. They've finally ceased, for the most part but were replaced with tension headaches. I used to get headaches that lasted nearly an entire week. I was popping 800 mg of ibuprofen at least twice a day and taking muscle relaxers. I still occasionally take both but I've been able to cut way back.

my headache tips

-cut back on caffeine, do it slowly. If you go cold turkey on caffeine, you can get some serious headaches

-watch the foods you eat, some of them can trigger headaches

-watch your posture. And if you sit in front of a computer and type all day, make sure your shoulders aren't turning in and tensing up.

-Go see the chiropracter! I love mine and I credit him for getting rid of my migraines.

-Try yoga, pilates or nia. Anything that keeps you loose and limber
