This is my first post. I'm in search for answers, too. I have chronic migraines. They seemed to be mostly linked to the weather, but stress doesn't help. I talke imetrex & hydrocodone. I have started a headache diary at the request of my new neurologist. It helps me keep my sanity. I have had headaches for every day except 2 for the last 3 1/2 weeks. He also started me on topamax. The last 5-6 days, I have been awaking with headaches on a 8 out of 10 pain scale. Yesterday, the headache eased off, but is back today, but not too bad. Trying to understand what can make it better.
Good luck.
