QUESTION: Weekend Headache

ANSWER: On the weekends, you wake up late with an awful headache -- probably stemming from not having had your morning dose of coffee (caffeine) at the regular time (earlier on weekdays). The change in sleep duration can be a factor, also. A gradual withdrawl from caffeine drinks over a period of several weeks may help alleviate the problem. (Sometimes weekend headaches get worse and are classified as caffeine-withdrawl migraines or rebound headaches.)
