I have severe migrane, and nothing helps, really, aside from the treatment I am doing now, which has been a blessing! I take medicine every day - Topamax (Topiramate, 75mg in the am, and 75mg in the pm). This has reduced dramatically my episodes - like 90%. The remaining 10% is sooooo much easier to treat now! Maxalt 10 for me is the best medicine... When that doesn't work, and the migraine hangs for days on no end, I go to the hospital and get an injection of an anti-inflammatory - that works like a charm.
Narcs never worked for me... Since I started on Topamax I haven't had one bad episode yet - just mild ones... It has been wonderful! But the medicine itself has side effects... The worst of all is that it makes you "stupid" for a couple of months
But... Since I was unemployed... Oh well! Well, not completely stupid... it gives you the "blanks" you forget words, that kind of stuff... Weird. But you get over it, and normal again
It is wonderful to be pain-free though
