before going for all this research... please get your eyes checked and find out whether you need a pair of glasses...
painkillers are killers for vital organs like liver and kidneys...

Headaches are complex problems and there is no easy solution.
It is best to find out the source/cause of your recurrent or chronic headaches.
If you are having 2 or more migraines a month you need to be on prevention treatment.
First, if this is the worst headache of your life or could be considered a thunderclap headache, or if you have a headache and neck rigidity (not stiffness) and or back pain, seek urgent medical care.
Take your Vasograin and go to a darkened quiet room and lie down. Avoid bright lights and prolonged computer use.
If you feel you need to see a doctor go to the following site first:
www.headaches.org
In the consumer area, see the educational resources tab.
Print and fill out the headache diary as shown.
See the How to talk to your headache doctor page.
I also recommend the pages on analgesic rebound, and diet.
Do not take Imitrex or anyone else’s migraine medication without a health care provider’s approval.
I have seen patients with severe hypertensive crisis bordering stroke and cardiac problems due to taking a medication which was inappropriate for them. Also there are some types of migraine which are not recommended for the new migraine wonder drugs, ie. Hemiplegic and basilar artery migraines.
There are many non medication methods which are beneficial also, such as biofeedback, and acupuncture.
Seek the assistance of your primary care clinic and if no improvement a specialist in headaches.
Your Vasograin is a combination of ergotamine tartrate (a vasoconstrictor), paracetamol (analgesic), and prochlorperazine (antinausea) and caffeine. These are all good for headaches but probably are not the best choice for common or classic migraines.
As a fellow migraine sufferer I wish you the best.

There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation;
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Avoid late sleeping if possible;spicy, sour, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.

Get rid of migraine by doing meditation for half an hour in the morning and evening through the process of self-realization under the guidance of a good spiritual teacher.

It could be your migraines are allergy related, most likely a food allergy. If your current medication is not working, talk with your doctor. Another more serious condition may be affecting you.
