Ask your doctor about Topamax, it works great for me!. I am 57 and have had migraines for most of my adult life!. Tired everything from the stuff that you take at the onset(doesn't work) to all kinds of other meds!. I started on Topamax about 1 1/2 years ago and I am migraine free!. Sometimes I yet get the aura but that is all!. The 2 side effects that I have noticed is my appetite has changed to where I don't eat as much (good for me) and I am always cold!. But as long as I don't have migraines I can adjust to those side effects!. There is no generic for Topamax so without insurance it is very expensive!. I Hope this helps!. See if you can get some samples or look in magazines I got a 30 free trial!. Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

cold compress
get out of the light
take meds as soon as you start to feel them come on, if you wait till full blown migrane it's hard for meds to work
don't keep taking more meds or you will get rebound headaches

see a neurologist,preferably a headache specialist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sometimes it can be the foods you eat!. Unfortunately chocolate, caffeine, and many other great foods can bring on migraines!. Keep a diary of what you eat and see if there is a pattern!. Reducing or eliminating those foods can help you from having them!.

Ask your doctor about Relpax! It is awesome!. I use it and it doesn't knock you out like most migraine meds do!. You take it and about 20 mins later its like you never had the migraine! Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
