Rather than taking panadol for my headaches I have gone and seen my acupuncturist. I was seeing him to assist with TTC and he was also treating my headaches. In the first trimester I didn't have that many headaches but now I have had a few more and my acupuncturist has been a life saviour. The headaches seem to stay away for longer periods when I have acupuncture rather than taking panadol.

I also looked whether there were reasons for my headaches and for me there were - I am working FT and was studying at Uni part time in the evenings. I have since applied to take a leave of absence from Uni for 2009... I just cannot concentrate as much as I am required to and it was hurting my brain!
