Q: One way that people deal with migraines, even silent migraines, is to get extra rest. Some people sleep through the migraine, while others just rest in a dark room, as light can make aura worse for some people. Talk to your doctor about the possibility of taking triptans. These prescription medications can help prevent or alleviate migraine symptoms. Triptans work by helping your brain produce more serotonin, which in turn decreases inflammation in your brain. You take this medication after a silent migraine has already started. The earlier you take it during a migraine attack, the more effective it will be. Take your medication as directed by your doctor. Because hormone changes can lead to migraines, taking birth control pills may reduce the number of migraines you have. For some people, taking birth control may make the problem worse, so it really depends on your body and how it responds to the medication. Nonetheless, it's something you should discuss with your doctor, particularly if you often get migraines right before or during your period. If your silent migraines are accompanied by nausea or upset stomach, your doctor can prescribe a medication to help with the nausea. While these medications don't treat the migraine, they can help you deal with the symptoms. Silent migraines by definition skip the headache portion of the migraine; however, if you have other pain associated with the migraine, you can take over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Always follow the package instruction when taking these medications. Studies have shown that high homocysteine levels may lead to an increased chance of aura migraines. To combat this issue, one study suggests taking B vitamins may be helpful. Ask your doctor if this treatment is a good idea for you. In the study, the participants took 400 micrograms of B12, 25 milligrams of B6, and 2 milligrams of folic acid.
A: Get your rest. Ask about triptans. Consider taking hormonal birth control pills. Ask your doctor about anti-nausea meds. Take pain medications as needed. Try taking B vitamins.

Q: If you really want to be an expert at the Hokey Pokey, then you should know the song before you begin the dance. This will help you get oriented with what to do next with your body, and it will also just help you have more fun when you're doing the dance! Though the words change slightly depending on where and with whom you're singing them, here's what you should know: You put your right foot in You put your right foot out You put your right foot in And you shake it all about You do the hokey pokey And you turn yourself around That's what it's all about! You put your left foot in You put your left foot out You put your left foot in And you shake it all about You do the hokey pokey And you turn yourself around That's what it's all about! You put your right hand in You put your right hand out You put your right hand in And you shake it all about You do the hokey pokey And you turn yourself around That's what it's all about! You put your left hand in You put your left hand out You put your left hand in And you shake it all about You do the hokey pokey And you turn yourself around That's what it's all about! You put your whole self in You put your whole self out You put your whole self in And you shake it all about You do the hokey pokey And you turn yourself around That's what it's all about! Though the version here only uses the arms, feet, and whole body, you can add as many variations to this dance as you'd like, as long as you still end with the whole body. Once you finish the arms and legs, you can also add other body parts, such as putting the nose, shoulders, knees, elbows, or even your bottom into the mix! You should also note that, in some versions of the song, the arms go in before the feet. It's all up to you! In some versions of the song, the lyrics for the lines that say, "You put your [body part] out," actually go, "You take your [body part] out," instead.
A: Learn the song. Add variations.

Q: More times than not, it is best to leave a baby bird alone. Even if you do not see its parents around, chances are that the parents are not far off and will return to the nest (or ground) to feed it. However, if you see evidence of physical trauma (e.g., broken beak, missing or injured feet, puncture wounds), you should transport the baby bird to a veterinarian or wildlife rehabilitation center. The baby bird will also need your help if it is sick (e.g., cold to the touch, weak). For a nestling, you may need to take the baby bird for further care if the parents have not returned in an hour. Keep in mind, though, that the parents may not approach the nest if you are too close. Stay at least 100 feet (about 30 meters) from the nest. A nest with dead baby birds is abandoned. Any surviving baby birds will need help. This cannot be emphasized enough! Unless you are a licensed wildlife rehabilitator, it is illegal to hand raise wild animals in captivity. In addition to being unlawful, hand raising a wild baby bird is extremely time intensivenestlings need to be fed every 15 to 20 minutes. Even with the best of intentions, it is unlikely that you will do a better job of raising a baby bird than its parents or a wildlife rehabilitator. If you choose to take the baby bird to a veterinarian, find one that specializes in birds and wildlife. If you do not know the wildlife veterinarians in your area, your local zoo or ASPCA can give you recommendations. Search for the nearest wildlife rehabilitation center, both within the United States and internationally, by using a directory, such as the one at http://wildliferehabinfo.org/. To transport the baby bird safely, gently place it in either a cardboard box or shoebox with holes cut out for adequate ventilation. Place a towel in the box's bottom so the baby bird does not slide around in the box. To minimize the chances of you getting injured while picking up the baby bird, wrap it up completely in a towel (including the head and feet). You could also line the bottom of the box with paper towels. Handle the baby bird as little as possible before transporting it to minimize its stress.
A: Determine if the baby bird needs your help. Do not hand raise a baby bird. Contact a veterinarian or wildlife rehabilitation center. Transport the baby bird.

Q: The water will help the image transfer onto the adhesive surface of the tape. Let the taped image soak in the warm water for 5 or 6 minutes. The water should be warm to the touch, but not hot. Hot water may melt or deform the tape and image. Pull the taped image out of the water, and lay it flat on your working surface. Using your index and middle fingers, rub back and forth across the paper side until the paper rolls and flakes off of the tape. If the paper doesn't rub off completely, re-submerge it in the warm water and let it soak for another 2 or 3 minutes. Then, pull the image out and continue rubbing off the paper. Once you've removed all of the paper, you will be left with the strip of packing tape with the image transferred onto it. Pull out a blow dryer and use it to fully dry the strip of tape. Once the tape is dry, you'll notice that one side has become sticky again. If you don't have a blow dryer, set the piece of tape flat on your work surface. Let it dry by air, which will take about 30 minutes. You're now ready to apply the image onto the glass. Center the tape above the glass, and lower the adhesive image until it's resting against the glass surface. Then, using your fingers, press the tape firmly onto the glass. Start at the top or bottom of the tape and work your way to the other side, to avoid trapping any air bubbles under the tape. If you find any air bubbles once the tape is applied, smooth them out from under the tape using the edge of a credit card.
A:
Submerge the image into a glass of warm water. Rub the paper off of the back of the tape. Blow dry your image. Press the adhesive side of the image firmly against your glass.
