Signed up for your Substack just to read this! I’m excited to try out some of these products to see if they’re an improvement to any of the tools in my own pain management arsenal (I’m basically attached to a heating pad 24/7 😆). I recently had an adverse reaction to my favorite medication, Advil, and can’t take it anymore so I need some new tricks. Thank you so much for sharing what works well for you!

The eye mask is the perfect gift. I love that thing!

Thanks for writing this list! It seems we have similar issues, and I have found a lot of the same solutions that you have, but that eye massager is going right on my wish list!

I'm going to send a few of these on as gift ideas. I get migraines (although not as many now that I'm in medical menopause for BC - one of the very few perks I guess? I don't know)

Anyway. I still get migraines and whatever and when I do they are bangers and just knock me on my ass. I've got a prescription that does help, but it would be nice to have something while I lie in misery, practicing my moaning a la When Harry Met Sally.

I'm very curious about the eye massager because I have really dry eyes and the heating in the microwave rice bag I have is good but not great!
