Withdrawing coffe last 10 days or so; was interested to see if Iodine made a difference, as I have jumped off the coffee wagon twice before in my life. No difference; still the same type of headache for approx one week; last two-three days just a feeling of a lid on my head.

I took the opportunity to test what works for headache;
was especially interested in plain water compared with salt and water. The former did not work at all, I took up to 1 1/2 liter within 2 hours, no effect; it even worsened my headache.
Salt and water on the other hand; half a liter with 1/4 -1/2 teaspoon of salt worked within 20 minutes.
A beer or two in the weekend also took the pain away; no idea why.
So did a half hour walk in fresh air.

Last two days no craving for coffe; but I take one barley/chicory substitute in the morning.
Green tea with Jasmine is a favourite,
so is fresh ginger tea with lime and honey +; chilled.
Hopefully I will win this battle with myself; as I had an increasing coffee craving (not so much for the taste, but for the kick), and have been a caffeine addict for 20 + years.
