YES........ from my experiences, many things can trigger a migraine.. These triggers range from food, stress, eyesight, muscle tension, noise, lights, spinal mis-aliment...... you will need to figure out your trigger and then go from there. There are some meds out there... Amatrax, Wigrain, and others but they must be taken in a timely matter. (right when you are getting the onset of a migraine) The one thing that I have found that works super well for me is massage and also 2 to 4 migraine strength Excedrin's and a benedryl all at the same time. the Benedryl will make you groggy but it is better than the headache.
Good luck to you, i certainly know what you are going through.

I had migraines alot when I was younger. The sumatrypaminr helped, but that's by prescription only. See your doctor.

I had them when I was younger and took medication for it. All I remember is that I had to take it within 20 min. after it started. They worked and I stoped having them around 30. Good Luck.

I do. Had them very often there for a while. I was on that strattera for my ADHD and wow! Stopped that drug.
Otherwise I have them several times a month. I have a alternative medication for mine and it works....still there but it works. It is so much better then the host of drugs I was on for them.....
