Bobbi, my migraines started in pretty much the same manner yours did. We tried different meds (I too had/have high blood pressure and smoked.) The most effective prescription drug I have taken is Treximet. It usually works within an hour and I rarely have had to take it more than once.
After several years we moved and my migraine have pretty much gone away. We found out that inside the wall behind our headboard was covered with mold! THAT can cause migraines. You might want to check it out.
Please do stop smoking - it is another cause as are certain foods. You might want to get allergy tested.
I'm just thowing ideas at you but I know when I was in your shoes I cried for help! Only someone who has suffered migraines knows how you feel. I pray you find the relief you need and a cause for these attacks. |
