Thanks first to Kay, for telling me what the other drug mentioned was.
I was wondering .

Yes, I would ask for the doctor to prescribe something for migraines.
Especially since you tried something in the depakote family.
This is one of the drugs that is used sometimes for these things.

Topamax, is what I take as a thing for migraines daily so they hopefully
stay away. I also have what they call a rescue drug which is imitrex.

But my son's have taken something at night and its slipping my
mind right now. Not only to sleep but its also known for a migraine
prevention.

If and when I can remember its name I'll come back and post.
