Migraine Headache Symptoms

Migraine headaches or migraine headache symptoms are no fun. You know that as do I. The migraine symptoms can vary in totality but the symptoms are almost always the same for the individual migraine sufferer. Let's talk about those in more depth now. Once we do that, I will share with you my "secret migraine headache treatment cure" that works wonders. It's an herbal remedy that is fantastic.

First things first.

Specific Migraine Headache Symptoms

One warning sign that a migraine headache is coming is the aura or vision disturbances. This "aura" happens in in both of the sufferer's eyes. The vision symptoms can include any of the following:

• Blurry vision
• Eye pain
• Temporary blind spot
• Seeing stars
• Seeing odd, horizontal lines
• Tunnel vision

Now, it should be noted that not every migraine sufferer will have the visual aura. It happens, though. Those who do have it usually get the visual aura from 10 to 20 minutes before the onset of the headache. Studies have shown that the 10 to 20 minute figure, though, can vary substantially. I read one study that said the pre-symptoms, if you will, can happen, just a few minutes before the onset of the migraine to as much as 24 hours beforehand.

That's astonishing.

As we know, migraine headaches can be a dull-aching pain or much more virulent. The pain can as well be felt behind your eyes as well with tangential pain in the back of the head and neck. Moreover, the migraines can start on the same side each time. Again, uniformity of individual symptoms. These headaches consist of the following:

• Start as a dull ache and progressives from minutes to hours in intensity
• Can be throbbing, pounding or pulsating or a combination thereof
• Tend to be worse on one side of your head
• Can last as much as 6 to 48 hours

While I've never personally experienced virulent or severe tangential, accompanying symptoms, researchers say they include happen with the headache and are as follows:

• Appetite loss
• Chills
• Difficulty concentrating
• Sudden fatigue (this is common and my mother has this)
• Increased urination
• Nausea and vomiting
• Numbness, tingling, or weakness
• Sensitivity to light and/or sound
• Light sweating

To wrap this migraine headache symptom section up, the symptoms that can linger once the migraine has gone can include the following:

• Tangible fatigue with an desire or need for rest, a nap or sleep; This is common
• Feeling mentally dull
• Neck pain (this is tangential, residual pain) 

Migraine Relief: Migraine Headaches Natural Cure

Okay, here it is. If you do decide to try this herbal migraine cure formula, follow its directions exactly. It wouldn't hurt to talk to a local herbalist and certainly it wouldn't hurt to talk to your doctor, something that is recommended.

By the way, the cost is very inexpensive. The cost can be less than $30 dollars for the herbs when purchased in leave or floral form. What will you need? A stove that heats water, a pot, a pot lid, a storage glass or jar, and small wine glasses or small water glasses.

Okay, enough said. Here's the formula for migraine relief:

Migraine Headache Cure Formula

• 1 teaspoonful of Wormwood herb (Artemisia Absinthium); Please adhere strictly to this amount. One teaspoonful is enough. More is not better in this case (see Potential Side Effects point #7 below
• 1 teaspoonful of Culver's root (Leptandra virginica)
• 1/4 teaspoonful Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum minimum or Capsicum fastigiatum or Capsicum annum)

Preparation Info:

• Steam the Wormwood and Culver's root herbs for 20 minutes in 1 pint of hot, boiling water; cover pan w/ a lid
• Strain it in a large glass or bottle and stir in the cayenne pepper
• Bottle it and put it in a cool place

Dosage Amount to Drink:

Drink approximately 1 wineglass full and no more. One wineglassful is the maximum you should take.

Potential Side Effects

• Wormwood shouldn't be consumed by woman who are pregnant because it could cause a miscarriage
• Wormwood may also cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract and stomach 
• Wormwood should be taken in moderation at a minimum if you have intestinal or stomach ulcers. If you have a severe ulcer or are prone to stomach ulcers, you shouldn't take it perhaps at all. See your doctor. Scale it back so you're just taking a little
• If you drink too much, it could incite a bowel movement. Regulate the amount you drink to suit your bowels.
• I should again warn you that this three-herb concoction is a very bitter tasting concoction
• Avoid preparations sold as Wormwood Oil. You want the foliage or leaves to prepare the tea. Nothing else
• Wormwood oil can be dangerous if taken in a quantity large enough to produce psychoactive effects. Wormwood oil should not be taken internally in quantities larger than that which is recommended -- an absolute maximum of 1 teaspoonful is what should be used for the preparation. Once it's prepared, mixed and strained, then drinking a small wineglass is okay. You probably won't want to take more than that anyway as the taste is very bitter. It is one of the most bitterest herbs in the plant kingdom along with rue
• Wormwood can increase your appetite

Tips

When drinking it, hold your breath, that will help as your tastebuds are deactivated when you hold your breath. Try it and see. It does't look weird either and it's not chunky. It just looks like an herbal tea when it's ready to be imbibed. It's the taste that is distasteful.

Some take it with a teaspoon or tablespoon full of honey. I suggest taking it as is -- at least at first. Once this migraine headache cure starts eliminating your migraine, then you can experiment with adding bee's honey. Of course, if you are allergic to bee stings or bees, don't include honey.

A side effect that is very positive is that wormwood and Culver's root are vermicides -- substances used to kill parasitic intestinal worms and parasites in general. In fact, this wormwood herb of itself is a very potent incesticide. Bugs hate wormwood! Don't believe me? According to Dr. Oz, 90% of human beings carry around intestinal parasites!

Disclaimer

Before I give you this virtually unknown herbal combination that actually relieves migraine suffers from the pain of migraine headaches, I want to discuss something that's very important for your to know.

I have been studying medicinal herbs and alternative health material for many, many years. Still, I am not a doctor nor do I position myself as such nor am I doing so now. I am not dispensing medical advice in this website for to do so is against the law. I've never done that and I never will. I live by the law. This site is educational in nature. Period. Its purpose is to educate you, to help you, to point out alternatives out there in your quest for a migraine relief. Medical science is a great gift but they don't have all the answers.

Many cures of diseases are found in herbs, plants and herbal spices. That said,...

you should definitely talk to your doctor about your migraines and the herbs recommended. I recommend that strongly. If, my friend, you have an open mind, the information here is an herbal cure that is a migraine headache cure you should know about.

Where to Find The Migraine Relief Herbs

• Wormwood -- www.everyherbal.com/wormwood.htm -- Buy the "seeds and foliage option". You want the actual herb. If this site is unsatisfactory to you, do a Google or Bing search on this term "Buy Artemisia Absinthium" and it should produce a goodly number of companies that sell it
• Culver's root or Black Root -- www.PennHerb.com -- Phone number is 215-637-HERB (4372); specifically, you can see it here: http://www.pennherb.com/cgi-bin/herbstore.cgi/go?;14165. The term "Black Root" is another term for Culver's root. Among the names of Culver's root are Black Root and Tall Speedwell. That can be confusing, which is why I included the Latin names
• Cayenne Pepper -- you can buy it locally, even at your local grocery store but I don't recommend that as it's not as fresh and is not the best cayenne. I recommend a local health food store. Look for cayenne a minimum in the 30,000 Scoville Heat Units range. 30,000 to 50,000 will be sufficient. Cayenne is great for you but it is hot. (For more info on Cayenne Pepper, please visit my site on cayenne pepper

I hope you found this info useful.
