I have headaches on many weekends but don't know why. I have been having a bad headache again all weekend. After I have a cup of coffee it stopped. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I drink lots of coffee on week days when I am at work. I think I know what my problem is. Any ideas on how I can get out of this and how long does it take?
Well, for starters, drink less coffee on weekdays. There are coffein pills that you can eat if you don't want to drink coffee to get rid of the headache.
I have been having a bad headache again all weekend. After I have a cup of coffee it stopped. If you can definitely link the symptom to the cause... Any ideas on how I can get out of this ...stop cold turkey. and how long does it take? Instantaneous.
It's not addiction, per se. Coffee probably prevents you from getting the headache you might have already gotten. Caffine is actually prescribed for headaches.
fyi: caffine is an addictive chemical and if you stop all drinking of coffee, tea, pop etc..you will suffer withdrawal headaches. fact jack. the headaches might last anywhere from 2 to three days..first day is hell, though.
Yeah, I know that is exactly what's happening. I drink about 4 cups of coffee at work per day plus 2 cans of pepsi. I don't drink coffee at home so I get bad headaches usually around Saturday night or Sunday morning and last until Monday. This sucks.
