Default these migraines and headaches, I cant do it no more

Im frustrated. So beyond frustrated. The headaches and migraines are just torture at this point.

Ive expended the medicines I can use for headaches and migraines according to my neurologist. Ive tried at least 20, and none touch them besides zomig (which I can only take 9 a month, and wc wont pay no more and its over $500 for them so I cant afford it). Im allergic to sulfa, and he says most are sulfa based, so im out of luck.

Ive been taking at least 2-4 excederine (minus the caffeine, I went Marks way and got them individually, but I forget there names right now) a day and 10-12 ibuprofen a day. This has been going on now for almost 2 months, along with taking my amytryptolin at night. My stomach cant handle it anymore, my belly is beyond swollen, and I can barely eat, and have massive (sorry) diarrhea.

Havent taken the excederine and ibuprofen in almost a week. My heads at an all time worst, and the seizures are full bore.

What else is there to try that is OTC? Im waiting on authorization for a headache/migraine specialist, but its still at least a few weeks out. Dont think I can stand a few more weeks of these. This is probably the worst ive been since the injury in January. I cant function worth a dime because these migraines are so non stop, and cant even sleep because they pound so much. Oh, and the tinnitus is back big time as well.

ARRRRRRGHHHHHHHHH SORRY I HAD TO VENT
