Migraine Favorite Things - My "Bed Buddy" - Putting Our Heads Together

Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter.

When you have a Migraine, are things that make you more comfortable helpful? During a Migraine, creature comforts become more important to me. In addition to a dark, quiet room, I just feel better with my favorite blanket and pillow. There are some other items that are "Migraine favorites" for me too.

The Migraine I had last night kept me awake for a bit, and I was thinking that we could share our Migraine favorites. My hands and feet are always cold in the winter, but it seems that me feet are always cold when I get a Migraine, and in the winter, that's especially uncomfortable. Actually, it's somewhat painful. My feet get so cold that they hurt. That's part of what kept me awake last night.

So, I turned to my "Bed Buddy" to warm my feet. I'd heated it before I went to bed, but it had cooled down, so I heated it a second time, and it felt so good! As my feet got warmer, I could feel that I was better able to relax my entire body, and I finally drifted off to sleep.

The Carex Bed Buddy Hot/Cold Pack is easy to use. You just pop it in the microwave to heat it. Or, if you prefer, you can put it in a plastic bag and put it in your freezer to get cold. How warm it gets depens on how long you leave it in the microwave, and it stays warm for a couple of hours. It also drapes across the shoulders or back of the neck pretty well if you prefer to use it there.

I hate shopping and trying to find items in "regular" stores, so I shop online whenever possible. I found my Carex Bed Buddy Hot/Cold Pack on Amazon for under $10.00.
