For those of you that have been diagnosed with migraines, have they been able to pinpoint the cause or reasoning behind them? If so, what is that cause and what kind of treatment has given you the most relief?
Answer:
I get them %26 my most common trigger is my period.
I also get them with weather changes (thunderstorms or temperature changes like extreme heat - etc)
Occaisonal other triggers are lack of sleep.
Often there are multiple triggers in people that add up %26 then you will get a headache. So maybe one month or one week it will thunderstorm %26 no headache, but the next you didn't sleep well, maybe had a glass of wine %26 then boom! big headache...
There are several good books out there on Amazon.com I'll post links to that you should read.http://www.amazon.com/what-your-doctor-a...http://www.amazon.com/heal-your-headache...I take a daily preventive- actually 2 preventives-- I use to only take one- Topamax, then I saw another specialist at Johns Hopkins %26 he tweaked my preventives %26 added Nortryptaline %26 that has really made a big difference. I also take 500 mg of magnesium a day, that is a good natural preventive -- good for relaxing the muscles.
I take a combo of either Relpax or Zomig, 2 Aleve %26 a Phenergan when I do get a migraine (Phenergan is for nausea.) I was told to take it even if I am not nauseated. it will keep me from throwing up later.Good Luck.
I'm not sure what exactly they have pinpointed as the cause for everyone but I know that a lot of times people get them from different causes. Personally I get them from both lack of sleep, stress and some other factors as well. Dark places seem to help me usually with no noise. But it's kind of trial and error so you really need to test to find out for yourself.
I don't suffer from migraine but I know of a friend who gets her migraine triggered by you will never guess - chocolates! Yes, it's true and very sad. I hope you get well soon.Ethan
They dont have a clue, I have had them for 20 years and have had everything from cat scans to nose surgery that was supposed to have helped years ago ha ha, it made them worse , I have tried every anti migranine type pill and shot there is no luck. So now I am on something called Fiorinal 3 , for the pain and take Vicodin if they dont work. I thought for a minute that imitrex injections was working but wa la they came back. If you ever come across anything that does work send me a message, Good Luck
There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation;
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine %26H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Avoid late sleeping if possible;spicy, sour, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, sweet fruits, milk, rice and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.Source(s):

I get debilitating migraines about once every 2 weeks sometimes more/less.
I was injured by a Dr. who hit a nerve in my neck and did permanent damage.
I have tried imitrex injection, and all the rest on the market, nothing worked, I always ended up in the E.R. for relief. I live in WI and moved to AZ where I found a great neurologist, I am disabled from various conditions from the injury but migraines being one, I don't work so maybe these drugs wouldn't be for you but they are a godsend for me, I vomit from mine so he gave me Promethazine 25mg and Butal/apap/caf 50-325 tablets.
I recently moved and my new neurologist didn't like it but he said if they work for me to stay on them. I can now control them with these and try to carry on my life.Just a thought for you.I have tried theropy,chiropracters,meditati... cat scans,mri's,pain clinics, to no avail.
I have had cat scans done, and MRI's and i have been taking medicine for the past 3 years. I'm only 17. Doctors have no idea what's wrong with me.
