(semi) GOOD NEWS!! i don't know if i've just been over-looking it or if it's new, but CVS has their own 'brand' of excedrin migraine.. of course, i was skeptical, as most people would be.. but.. IT ACTUALLY WORKS.. i even took my usual 3 pills and my headache was gone in under 1/2 an hour.. i didn't, however, see any store brand 'back and body' pills.. luckily, i still have 30 or so of them left

but the store brand migraine pills are called 'migraine relief..' red and white box with the CVS logo in the top left corner

Yeah, wal mart here has now pulled all the brand names of "excedrin", but still carry the generic equate version...odd.

The body has tremendous capacity to heal itself over time, if given the chance.  I hurt my lower back 42 years ago and suffered for years with periodic outbursts of lower back pain and sciatica down one leg.  Eventually, I moved away from a road job to a desk job--just by quirk.  Over time I learned that one of the worst things for a back is driving a vehicle, especially if the seats are lousy.  Anyway, the indoor work must have been part of the factor in healing.  I can not remember the last time I had a crippling attack--it has been over 15 years now.  I, too, thought at the age of 30--while laying in bed one fine day (because I could not stand up straight), will I be a wheelchair case at 60?  Nope.

Well, not to whine or bitch..I'm 35. A totally pain free day hasn't been seen since 1996. Wrecks, poor posture, a damaged ankle playing high school football, and not eating right/too much alcohol in my late teens/early 20s has played a role. Still, I'm in better shape now than ever, and it's just pain. I can still do everything I always could before.

Over the week's course, i probably take no more than 8 OTC pain meds, tylenol, ibuprofen, etc, usually for headaches from wearing safety glasses at work.
