Feeling Good, Really !
I've not posted for a couple of months, and it isn't because there haven't been some nasty migraines. But, there have been only a few bad ones since September.
I don't know how anyone out there is tonight, but I'm migraine free at the moment,
and have been all day.
For a couple of weeks now, the twinges have been few, mild, and of short duration.
This time of year tends to be a little better, probably because it is seismically quieter.
Of note: Several months ago, I advanced the theory that many children's earaches were actually migraines, with or without tinitus. I also discussed at a forum that thinktanks some interesting and varied subjects, for other opinions.
The reasons why figuring this out is important is pain relief for the littlest migrainuers, and, that it can drastically reduce the frequency and amount of antibiotics that children are being dosed with.
This in turn, will make antibiotics more effective when necessary.
A small study has now been done, according to a CBS news report. A group of children with frequent earaches, who were usually treated with antibiotics with limited effectiveness, became test subjects.
Half the children were given pain medication. The other half of the children were given antibiotics.
Those given pain medication needed the meds a few days longer, but had better and faster relief.
The half on antibiotics were relieved of the earache symptoms faster, but without the same level of pain relief.
