I want to remind everyone the stress from the holidays can increase migraine frequency.
Not only the stress, but scented candles, oils etc... perfumes from guests and family members.
Remember to take your rescue med with you. Put some in your purse NOW!
I went to Home Depot and purchased hand warmers, small orange packs, I use them to hold on my temples and it helps. IF cold helps you, put a small ice chest in you car with a wash cloth if you are not comfortable with the hosts of where you are going.
Thing is to be prepared, so you can enjoy the holiday as much as possible.!
Peace, comfort and strength

Holiday candles in public places are the absolute worst. My gym insists on burning one all day long... it permeates the entire building and gives me a blinding headache... but no matter what I say, they insist on lighting it. I tend to blow it out whenever they aren't looking, but of course the whole place is already contaminated. UGH.
Maybe you could try a surgical type face mask. But Vicks or something in it. menthol usually help my head pain.
Some business do not care about invisible handicaps.
