Does anyone else get bad tension headaches? I’ve started getting them all of a sudden. The NHS website says it’s a symptom. I don’t usually ever get headaches so its annoying me at the moment

I get a lot of headaches. Also so much nausea
Yeah I’ve had some horrendous ones. I didn’t know what to do with myself during the last one. They can take a few days to clear too. I just take paracetamol which eases it and allows me to actually sleep. Caffeine is also good for headaches.Does anyone else get bad tension headaches? I’ve started getting them all of a sudden.

My migraines are awful. I usually get botox treatments for them every 3 months but the hospital are behind, I should have been done in October and I'm still waiting 
Currently having my first period since September. So today I was stuck in bed with a migraine, terrible cramping and horrific flooding.

Yep mine seem to be triggered by weather and hormones together. Paracetamol, sugar, salt and something to drink really help, so even with the nausea I'll reach for some crisps or salted nuts, some jelly sweets or a sugary drink (which I hate!) and a cold water. When I was younger and I got pressure headaches or migraine any of these things would make me immediately throw up, but for some reason now my hormones are gone to hell in a handbasket those foods actually do the trick.Does anyone else get bad tension headaches?

The other thing I found that works like magic is "Nurofen for migraine pain". It's a different, faster acting form of ibuprofen (ibuprofen lysine) and genuinely I can feel it working in 10 to 15 minutes. But it's not readily available for me (I live in Ireland) which is probably just as well or I'd be popping them every few days!
I seem to be going from one symptom to another. Just stopped with the itchy ear and now its itchy body. Migraines have eased off but now the the rage is coming back but I think the stress of Christmas doesnt help. I had to prep talk myself before doing the Aldi shop. It's a good job I did because some woman bumped her trolley in to me. Well I instantly swung round and was about to unleash all hell down the yoghurt isle but managed to cling on to my mouth before it opened. Was so relieved to get back home away from people 
Anyone tried these mushroom gummies? Keeps popping up on my socials and Trust pilot reviews are good

Caffeine. I didn’t think of that…I don’t have any really but I used to be a Pepsi max addict but not had much for a couple of years.
I feel like I’ve had a continuous headache for two weeks. I avoid the doctors at all costs but it’s getting to me so not sure if I should go doctors or not. Will they even do anything?!
My pms is getting worse with each month. I just have no patience at all and I feel angry at myself, I even get to the point I want to hurt myself
Have you been to the Dr? It sounds like it would be a good idea to talk to them and see if they can recommend anything.
Pepcid tablets are meant to be helpful. I was taking them for other reasons but that month I did notice no signs of pre period symptoms
I’ve always had bad headaches and I swear by putting a warm hat on.
Thank you, I'll try them
No I haven't yet, I'll have to get an appointment I think
Reading your posts on not feeling it or feeling too exhausted to cope with this time of year.
I’m just coming round from a complete meltdown in front of my husband, over Xmas.
We only have one thing to do, and that’s go to his parents with sister in law, brother in law and nephew, but the thought of it all was getting too overwhelming for me… 8 hours couped up with five people I’d otherwise pay to avoid…
normally I’d grit my teeth and get through.
This year I’m just too anxious, knackered and overwhelmed. Hormones are all over the place and I honestly feel like I’m going to snap. Just told my husband to ring his folks and tell them I can’t do it. Which to be fair he did… now I just want to hibernate forever.

Aw I’m sorry you feel like this! You’re not doing anything wrong by feeling overwhelmed right now. Christmas can be a lot — all the expectations, the noise, the trying to please everyone. The world won’t fall apart if you step back, slow down or say no, so be kind to yourself! you have every right to protect your peace
Don’t bother, I fell for the marketing and the glowing reviews and might as well have been eating fruit pastilles for all the difference I felt
If you’re in the uk and not USA you’ll need a friend to post them over, we don’t seem to get them here.
You've done the right thing for you and, your husband had supported you. Now the pressure of having the 'one thing' but a significant thing, which made you uncomfortable,to do is off, I hope you can take the opportunity to rest and relax.
Hey ladies, hope you all had a wonderful peri-Christmas — or at least survived it with your dignity and sanity still intact. Did Santa bring peace, joy and estrogen balance or just night sweats, mood swings and relatives who got on your last nerve?
