They have been happening more and more frequently....GP has advised Calpol and keeping a headache diary and going back in three months.
Some of the headaches are so bad, accompanied by vomiting I bought some Migraleve...I could see by the look on DSs face this was going to be a bad headache and tried to get him to take a pink tablet, but try as we might, he couldn't get it down.
(DH was 
about it anyway the Migraleve info in the packet says from 12years, but on-line on thier website says from 11years - and also says it's adictive in big letters on the packet.
So, the up shot it, he hasn't taken the Migraleve, he has eaten and had 5ml of Calpol (instead of the recommended 10ml) , and DH has gone out to buy some more).
DS is now in my bed, with the curtains closed and the radio on low, with a cold flannel on his head. He has a towel for when in case he vomits. I know from the look on his face this will continue until lunch time tomorrow.
I wouldn't normally worry, as although DH and I both work, and obviously tomorrow is Sunday so that's not a problem, and my DM is happy to have him if it's a school day (sorry, rambling here)......BUT he's off on a residential trip for three days in a weeks time. What if he gets a headache on the trip? It's unlikely it will happen, but if it does, what can I expect them to do? He needs 1:1 care when he's this ill. Should I insist I'm called to bring him home? The school refuse to administer any medication normally....
