Couldn't read and not reply.

Long term migraine and chronic tension headache sufferer here.

This sounds extremely strange and counter productive but the next time you get a bad headache try a can of original coke (not a diet or zero version) or a very strong cup of coffee with a couple of sugars.

For prevention make sure you drink 2 litres of water a day. Get a full night sleep which is crucial. Avoid spending hours in front of a tv/computer. There are also dedicated migraine & headache clinics in hospitals which you could get a referral to if necessary.

Hi all,

I suffer from migraine and gp has talked about a Dr Ruttledge out in the Hermitage. Just wanted to see if anybody had gone to him? If he's any good?
