You may want to look in out pain management section for some tips
If you have a migraine take 2 Paracetemol together with 2 Ibuprofen, give them a hour to kick in. Lie in a quiet, dark room if your circumstances allow you to do so. You'll get used to dealing with the pain, it sounds odd but it's true. Humans are very resilent beings and you'll be surprised how you'll adapt to your illness.
Try to remain upbeat (easier said than done, I know !!). Don't do too much on your good days or you'll regret it a few days later, I promise.
Hope this helps !!!
