Cocoa for headaches?

[Dale Moss]

Joy,

The "cocoa headache" does indeed sound like Spigelia -- but it isn't. That
was the first Rx I tried. Didn't touch it. What led to Bryonia, which took
care of the acute, was that the pain moved backward from the front of the
head into the brain. She was also Nat-m. constitutionally, but I'd been
taught not to give Nat-m. during a headache because it can exacerbate.

Peace,
Cinnabar

Right, what about Prunus then. Can't remember now if you said right or left
and Prunus is usually right sided for the headaches and left sided for
shooting pain in the eye but the headache pain goes from the front of the
head/brain right through to the back of the head.

Useful? Best, Joy

Thanks, Joy. I'll keep it in mind should Nat-m. not work this time.
