Today is the first [what I used to call] "eyeball headache" I've had in a few years. So looked up the most effective treatment... some medical sites say "only ice/cold packs" while others say "heat may be more effective." Which tells me nothing at all. I can try both, but has anyone had more relief with one than the other? Getting to desperate stage here with throbbing eyes.
 
Yes, I used to have horrific "severe cluster migraines" during my first marriage.
Funny, They stopped when I divorced him, but I digress.
Instead of taking drugs, I found "Migrelief" over the counter
(Riboflavin, Feverfew and Magnesium mostly)
I was AMAZED at the results! Stopped the pain cold!
and yeah, ice, not heat. Sure hope you feel better!
 
Have you found anything that helps @CallMeKate ?

I used to get these horrid headaches in my earlier 20's. Usually one eye only affected. Felt like a dagger was going through my head and out one eye. That's the only way I can explain it. The next day, even with the headache gone, my scull still hurt a little. I seemed to out age them and then acupuncture in my 30's. Nothing helped them at the time.
