Hello everyone I need your help, I've been dealing with a headache for 3 days now. Can this be a flare and has anyone ever had this issue? Thank you all in advance❤️

You're right Lori it has been stated and tested as well apparently that gatorade and apparently powerade will most likely vanquish headaches and migraines seeing as it helps with rehydration because dehydration causes headaches too this is really helpful and beneficial to a lot of people who have a history of migraines and headaches, knowledge really is power isn't it @A MyLupusTeam Member?

Not sure of this works...but apparently if you drink 2 gatorades, it helps more than meds. I hate the stuff, so I am an Excedrin Migraine kinda gal, but it's worth a shot!! Rest up in case you are flaring up. Feel better soon. ❌⭕️❌⭕️

I read in a lupus magazine and on the lupus website that headaches are in fact a sign of a lupus flare hope you feel well soon @A MyLupusTeam Member

I had some migraines beginning of
Summer. Extreme. Lasted several days. Went to hospital. Extensive tests.

Long story, but diagnosed with Vestibular Migraines. They come with dizziness.

You really should get it checked regardless of what kind of headache.

In meantime. Aleve (ck with dr or pharmacist), ice (on 20 min off 20 min and so on). Rest eyes from reading and all electronic devices, i.e, tv, phone, comp, ipad, etc. Radio or cds very low will be your sanity if you don't like too quiet.

But should be in dark and quiet place.

Sunglasses if you have to go out.

God bless.
