since you're allergic to tylenol I would call your doctor before you take anything.

sorry you have that pain

Can you take Excedrin migraine? I have a friend that swears by that. Otherwise, maybe just lay down in a dark place?

go home, enclose yourself in a dimly lit, quiet space and try to get some sleep until it passes.

Sometimes eating helps.

Since you can't lay in a dark place quietly, I would try a cold compress. If that doesn't work, try a hot one.

Maybe you suffer from Migrains. You should go to your Dr. and they can perscribe something. I just did that a few months ago and I'm so much better off now.

I suffer from migraines and find that Excedrian Migraine helps take the edge off. You may need to see the Doctor if it continues.

thats what I have been doing at night so I can sleep. I was thinking of taking Day quil to stay awake. but I dont want to keep giving myself drugs uppers and downers.

Re: What do you do when you have...

isn't the pain reliever in Day Quil and NyQuill tylenol???

just googled it - yes, you are taking tylenol.

Acetaminophen 500mg (pain reliever/fever reducer)
Dextromethorphan HBr 15mg (cough suppressant)
Doxylamine succinate 6.25mg (antihistamine)
Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride 30mg (nasal decongestant)


Acetaminophen is Tylenol....maybe you are giving yourself this headache.

Yes, it is Acetaminophen. Maybe that is why it is not helping you!! You also should not take Excedrin because it also is acetaminophen. I guess you should stick with Advil or Aleve.
