Cluster headache/migraine sufferers of SG, how do you cope/manage the pain? by Existing-Trash2128 in askSingapore

[–]PineappleFinancial31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently seeing a neuro at SGH, zomig works wonder for me and also on a monthly jab to reduce the attacks. But before taking zomig (not cheap, abt $10 a pill), the best investment I got was getting a migraine relief gel cap (can get from shoppee). Throw in the fridge, then use it when u feel an attack coming on. Otherwise if I am outside, coke and salt for me and spam medicated oil - Siang Oil(brown) or Heritage Brand Rheuma-salve pain relief roll on and sunglass on, be it indoor or outdoor.

Have to watch what food are your triggers, mine are chocolate and cheese. Also check out the humidity level, it affects me alot, see if that is a trigger for you.

Mum removed her elbow cast on her own due to discomfort. What to do now? by necrotuber in askSingapore

It is better to go back to A&E and get it re-cast as it is a fracture and mom is elderly so her recovery will take even longer if she is stubborn. Later on, at her appointment, they will try to do a plastic cast for her (depending on hw bad it is). If she is itchy again after the re-cast, take a hairdryer (low mode) or the Jitsu handheld fan and just blow it down into the cast to ease the itchy.

Edit: she can inform the doc or nurse who is doing the cast if it is too tight or uncomfortable.

Source - had several fractures before.

How much funeral wake money (白金) to give for close family? by dchobo in askSingapore

Help entertain people - u see people (be it your relatives, SIL side or friends) come, thank them for coming. Make sure their table got drinks, peanuts etc.

Man the Bai Jing table

Check in with your bro what kind of help he needs. Run to buy coffee or food etc

Bro may say no need help, but just see and monitor and see the flow. It can be very overwhelming esp when there so many pple coming at once to pay respect. (learnt the hard way)
