I thought of some more suggestions...lol
*Always wear sunglasses during the headache; it eliminates excess light
*Ask your doctor about..Topamax; or Zonegran both are really really good preventative meds..I used both. I still take Zonegran 225 Mg. And no side effects to bark at.
*Write Everything down..it helps the doctors...like things you ate before after and during the headache...up to two days before the headache. because sometimes you can learn a trigger this way.
Good luck all my migraine sufferers!!!
