I have a migraine headache starting first thing in the morning every day. Some days the headache is more severe and some days not too bad. Also, some days it resolves by noon and some days lasts all day. Overall, you can see it really interferes with my daily activities activities and just general sense of well being. Nobody wants to have a painful headache all day every day. I have found that I can reliably reduce the pain significantly by taking 2-200 mg Ibuprofen at 4:00 am and 2 high potency… read more
Thanks for the info.
It really does.... I haven’t had a migraine in almost a year....
I have white dots, zigzaging lights. But what scares me most is totally blurred vision.🥺
Hi-I went to an allergist today after my primary care physician refered me after a weekend of migraines, hives and digestive issues. She thought it might all be related to a food allergy. I found out I had a few food allergies but the main issues seems to be that ibuprofen could be giving me hives. I take ibuprofen often and I have very sensitive skin. I wonder if other people have issues with it and have other OTC painkillers for migraines.
Whole foods and staying away from processed and chemicals seems to be the key. I know I have allergies, primarily to cloves, so it makes sense to me that eating plain food would be good. It does… read more

What do you guys know about triptan overuse headaches?
I just learned of them from a nurse at my neurologist’s office. This had never been mentioned before by my neurologist and he prescribes me 30 rizatriptans per month and 7 frovatriptans per month, which covers my 20 migraines (if they decide to work). However, I had no idea that by taking the prescribed medication as directed, I could actually be causing more migraines. But if I don’t take them, I’m in excruciating pain and am… read more
I get a lot of headaches in the morning. I use Sumatriptan and try to watch how often I take it. I am on the lowest dose. It is frustrating that there is no one set cure for this disease. I will… read more
You tend to get more headaches if you've been taking the same medication for a while.
