Help me get rid of migraines?

has anyone any tips or knows of any medication that has worked for them in getting rid of migraines.? i get them once a month when im due on period and they last about 4-5 days . ive really had enough of them, keep going to docs but nothing happening. thanx x
Answer:
Regular painkillers don't help much with migraines. What you want are antimigraine drugs called triptans. There are several different ones on the market, including Imigran and Relpax. They're only available by prescription in the US. The lowest dose of Imigran is available OTC in the UK, and this is what I take. Triptans are not controlled substances or habit-forming, so I'm not sure why your doctor wouldn't have at least tried them. If you don't live in England, you can buy it through a British internet pharmacy such as mistrys.co.uk.

You should also be aware that if you take hormonal birth control, migraines might be related to that. Sometimes changing the type of birth control helps.
i got a good idea.

sleeping may work man. when u sleep u dun feel pain.

if that doesnt sound good, u can try putting a pack of ice on ur head. that sould work. if not,

medically, migraines can be an effect of low blood pressure or low cholestrol.

therefore you should exersice often and eat more eggs. they give good blood circulation and good cholestrol.

hope that helps man.
hey i used to get mirgraines every after noon for no apparent reason...they just subsided after a while.i dont really have any idea how to treat it.it is often good to try relaxation methods or a temple massage...but that was all i could figure:P good luck!
try to avoid food like:cheese,coffee,spicy food,cocoa and chocolate drinks,ice cream and fried food when you are nearing to your period,start drinking plenty of water and eat simple and light food.i tried this method it works for me.good luck :)
