I have a pounding headache...is it safe to take anything? I would call my dr but it will take awhile for them to return my call and I need to take something ASAP! Its to the point its making me nauseous and I can't focus at work!
Another thing that can help is a small amount of caffeine (up to 200mg/day is safe in pregnancy), if the tylenol alone doesn't cut it.
I got a pounding headache about an hour ago and Tylenol doesnt do anything for me, so I went and got a diet cherry coke, I've only taken about 3 sips so far, and I can already feel it easing up...

Use the caffeine as a chaser for the Tylenol. Because caffeine circulates your blood faster (among other things), it'll help to push the Tylenol through your system and you'll feel the effects sooner.
At my appt the other day the nurse told me that 1 cup (or can) of caffeine a day is now okay, esp. if you have a headache. I suffer from frequent migraines (was on preventative and rescue medications), and they said Tylenol and a can of coke.
Re: Headache - what is safe to take?
Tylenol is fine.

You can only take Tylenol
I get massive headaches, a lot...and it sucks because Tylenol doesn't really do jack schit for me. GL...
