I am almost 28 and haven't suffered with migraines long, other than menstrual migraines. But I just have sort of dealt with them. Recently I have been getting migraines more often. Even more recently I got a migraine that I have had for 8 days now. It pretty much left me debilitative. The doc prescribed me some Imitrex which did nothing. Then I got a shot of De-moral and Phenergan, which let me sleep peacefully and wake up with a miagraine still. He gave me some samples of Relpax, which I dug into and helped, but the price tag is so high, I am not sure I can depend on that daily. He also put me on 25 mg of topamax to help prevent them. So far I still have a migraine and am at my wits end. I guess I am scared because my mother has gotten a migraine every day for as long as she can remember. I’ve seen her in pain. I can’t even think of having that pain. I just want to get rid of it.

Just a tip, a lot of sufferers have a problem with sensitivity to the 3 C's - Cheese, Chocolate and Citrus!!! While your head is so bad, it may well be worth cutting these out of your diet for a while to see if there is any difference before gradually introducing them again and noting any changes!! Meanwhile you can try using Migravent Product. I am using since last week, its good. I think they have a site by same name migravent.
Keep well

While I have never had migraines, I know people who have. I am also a HUGE believer in living naturally. You are probably experiencing food allergies or some other allergy to medication perhaps.
Gluten/wheat, sugar, etc. and MSG, caffeine (soda, coffee), Aspertame, etc. are bad for many people but they don't associate it with physical symptoms they have.
Go get an allergy test done by a Naturopath and they will give you an elimination diet to see what's causing things.
Also when you have alot of stress you are not dealing with by being good to yourself, these things can accumulate.
good luck!
