I take Excedrin migraine for the moment, which sometimes helps.
My migraines are definitely triggered by the barometric pressure going down. It doesn't seem to bother me when it rises.

Recently my "dumb" husband (his words not mine!) accidentally purchased a cleanser for the dishwasher, not paying attention to the fragrance listed in the ingredients. Needless to say I get a migraine everytime the dishwasher door is opened now.
