Erica- I too suffer from headaches, debilitating ones. I finally got some Imitrex which helps with teh onset and Aleve complements this. YOu should ask about Imitrex or Maxalt. They work wonders. But they dont stop them. I personally have gotten an IUD to help control my hormones and this has immensly helped with the intensity of them and I have fewer. YOu should check that out, ot even just change birth control if you are on it or get on it if you are not on it.

I have 2 small children, and when one hits, Im gone. Im in my room, no noise, no light, I just wince in pain for a good 24hrs until I either go to the ER or my husband somehow gets them to go away with massage to my neck and head. So I am right with you when I know how you feel.

Try my suggests or atleast ask around. I know they have helpd me. I also know that COenzyme Q10 helps if you can get a hold of that. I read a study done about how it lessens migraines. So I have been trying that too, plus it gives me more energy.

Hope I helped.
