Headaches Or Migraine

I kid you not – that was how my face and head felt for the last two days and i only took tylenol when i couldn’t take it anymore .. and broke down. You all know how i hate taking medication and would rather not feed the body with so many chemicals – as if i don’t take enough tablets right.
So was it a migraine or a headache ..?? or did it have anything to do with my blood sugar level. On the second day – I couldn’t take it much longer – so I had to test my blood sugar .. to see if it had anything to do with it.. because I had been eating a spoonful of ice cream everyday for a few days now. But nope.. I tested and blood sugar was good at 6.9 – two hours after eating – so I’m good there.
So how do one knows if one is having a migraine or a headache..?? While headaches are located in the head and upper neck area – migraines are usually in the temple and affects the eye area. I’m always affected on my side of my head and face – so therefore – it looks more like a migraine then a headache – now that i know – do i still take tylenol or is there something special for migraines. I think there is – so I’m gonna check with my doctor and not Dr Google – afterall, I have a real doctor now.
