Nighttime headached

I only have headaches at night while I am sleeping have to take medicine then it continues for 3 to 7 nights

  1. Hi @Nbrown78, have you talked to your doctor about a possible cervicogenic component to your migraine? I've found that alternating a water pillow with memory foam, and a foam cervical pillow help keep my nighttime migraines to a minimum. It's worth asking your doctor about. Hope he can bring you some relief. - Warmly, Donna (team member)

    1. Hey there. Sorry you're going through this. Are you working with a doctor? This seems like a pattern that warrants some further investigation.

      Also, I ran a search for articles in our archives and there are a few posts that may be interesting for you to check out, if you'd like. Here's a link to my search:
