Thankfully I don't get them as often as I used to. Once I got one so badly that I was hallucinating from the pain, and then another time I actually went to the ER and they had to give me Morphine for it because it was so bad....Vicodin wasn't doing anything.

Magnetic Connections Schedule

Buy one of these and try it out for a few months. Your pain will lessen to a manageable level, or this might cure you completely. I'm telling you its worth a shot!
Someone I spoke to actually bought a necklace and said migraines are not as frequent and are not as severe when it actually happens.

As a pharmacist:

Avoid triggers ... for most people they are allergies, stress, and caffeine. Rebound headaches from caffeine deprivation is the number one cause of migranes. The best OTC product for severe headaches is Excedrin, but you can only take it if you do not have high blood pressure or a sensitivity to aspirin, acetaminophen or caffeine. If you are having more than 2 or more migraines in a month you may be a candidate for prophylactic therapy. At a bare minimum you should talk to your MD about abortive therapy. There are different types of migraines and the treatments vary depending on what type.
