Help...bad migraine

[wwisdomskr]

It started last night and, I hope, peaked this afternoon. The nausea has subsided, but omg the pain is so bad. What can I do? None of my meds are safe for breastfeeding (and any that are in the house are expired because I've been pregnant or breastfeeding for nearly 3 years).

I've been trying to drown it with water, had a coffee, ate some dark chocolate... Every time I think it's going away, the pain intensifies.

Any ideas?

how about acupressure? sleep? (can you sleep w/ a migraine?) are you sure its a migraine? just making sure it isn't some infection or something...

Hmm...maybe that's why I was such a mess last night...no sleep...

I'm pretty sure it's a migraine. I used to get them regularly...it's been a long time, though.
