[Everything doTERRA] Re: Migraine

I spent too many years as a chronic migraine sufferer so I completely
understand the sheer desperation to STOP THE PAIN - the only thing
that cured mine was a demerol injection (but then I'd loose 17+ hrs of
my life recovering from the medication) and I was getting them at
least once per month. I've primarily managed my through stress
reduction and proper supplements (LLV and magnesium). And now when I
do get the slightest hint of anything in my head, I don't give it a
chance to see what it's going to be - I hit it with Past Tense and
it's good.

Here is some information I've ran across the last couple of days as
I've been reading this thread. They from 2 different refernce
material sources and may be helpful to some...

From Better Nutrition - Live Better Naturally

Prevent with Magnesium - up to 1200 daily
Control attacks with Feverfew - start with 500 mg amd gradually
increase to 5 g daily
At first sign of impending attack - stir 2 Tbs ginger powder into a
glass of water and drink immediately. You can take feverfew at the
same time. If pain recurs, drink another dose of ginger.

From Aromatherapy for Health Care Professionals:

Chamaemelum nobile [Roman chamomile]; Eucalyptus globulus
[Tasmanian blue gum] (congestive); Lavandula angustifolia [lavender];
Lavandula x intermedia [lavandin] (chronic); Mentha arvensis

[basil]; Origanum majorana [sweet marjoram]; Pimpinella anisum
[aniseed] (nauseous); Rosmarinus officinalis ct. cineole, ct. camphor
