I used to get them around that time also. My gyn put me on a diuretic before my cycle started to get rid of the xtra water. Are you taking oral Sumatriptan? If so ask your PCP ( you should be under the care of a neurologist) about the dose pen. The dose pen works very fast. It's not a syringe but there is a needle involved that you never see. It is incredibly ease to use. You must take your meds at the first sign of your migraine or they might not be effective. What's great about the dose pen is that if you are nauseous you don't have to worry about taking a pill when you feel like you are going to throw up. I always have them in the hse. Never lve. home w/o one & an alcohol square.

Ambian is all that works for me

I take zomig for my migraines but they make me sleep for about two hours, they do help

Yes if you dont catch it soon enough the sumatriptan didnt work for me. I am now on a preventative. And my abortive is rizatriptan which i also have to catch the migraine at the right time. Or it doesnt work. Hope you find your solution.
