Headaches

I usually get a nasty one over a couple days and it happens maybe once every month or so. Sometimes I can take medicine and knock it out but most of the time I have to sleep them off. I know that's not helping since you haven't had much sleep lately to begin with but I know that works for me. Sometimes I get them if I haven't been eating much too. A little snack helps every now and then.

Whilst I too love the deliciousity of DP, I'm not sure that would have an effect like that (I'm no expert so don't hold me to that) and can only recommend some Acetaminophen. It does wonders for me.

Google caffeine headaches, mrz.

It's possible you are dehydrated, especially considering your recent dedication to this site. Increase the amount of water you drink in a day by one liter, and see if that helps. If it doesn't, add another. But don't increase it a third time, because then you'll die.

When you're drinking the water, too, make sure not to chug it, or you'll become nauseated.

Possible. Happens to me a lot. I easily drink 2-3 times more liquid than the average bear and STILL get dehydrated often.

Could it be immersion in the heat? Almost every time I have to engage in activities under the hot sun, I tend to get a headache after an hour or two. It's rare that I don't, come to think about it. Drinking a lot of water helps, but not as much as staying in the shade or air conditioning helps.

Wish I had a cure for you. ... and for me. Really wish.

Touche. Corrected. I guess my fingers slipped to the right a bit. 😊

I blame this topic for the headache I ended up getting today. Thanks. Tylenol is awesome.

Dude, if you're losing sleep 'cause of this whole AGN thing, I'm not sure that's healthy. It's good to be dedicated and all and I really admire your efforts but you really should let yourself get some decent sleep at some point. Don't overexert yourself!

I don't really have any useful advice for headaches, unfortunately. I pretty much had to force myself to go to bed early last night because I had a killer headache. 😞

I get nasty migraines every now and then. Either Excedrin(if you can find it) or very strong coffee helps a lot.

Thanks for the concern. I got a two hour nap in today and felt loads better. The losing sleep is mainly because of my other thread about losing a loved one. AGN's resurrection has served as a nice distraction.

Oh my god... well, now I feel kind of inconsiderate.

That's horrible and I'm really sorry to hear about that. 😞

CTRL-ALT-DEL has evolved into TASK MANAGER.

We've still got a long ways to go before we can say that we've resurrected AGN. That's what you've got us for. Drink more water, eat more veggies, and get some exercise. Keep yourself distracted, and lets get down and dirty.

I've only got five more days. After that, you guys will have to live without me for two weeks. I'm shocked my wife hasn't freaked out because of how much time I've spent on the computer since I got home 9 days ago. That woman is a saint I tell you.

Wives usually are. extra characters to meet the limit

If you are not getting sleep, are dehydrated, and stressed my guess is your headaches are blood pressure related. When my blood pressure gets bad I get migraines. They only last for about 30secs to a minute but feel like someone shoves an icepick through my temple. <- Not an exaggeration. I got them to stop happening by eating less salt, drinking less soda, soaking in Epsom Salt baths, and driving less. You'd be amazed how much driving raises your BP.
