You might want to try avoiding medicine altogether or at least using a topical painkiller like Dr Hyson's which gives quick relief and has no side effects.

Whether or not you take preventive medications, you may benefit from lifestyle changes that can help reduce the number and severity of migraines.
One or more of these suggestions may be helpful for you:

*Avoid triggers. If certain foods seem to have triggered your headaches in the past, eat something else. If certain scents are a problem, try to avoid them. In general, establish a daily routine with regular sleep patterns and regular meals. In addition, try to control stress.

*Exercise regularly. Regular aerobic exercise reduces tension and can help prevent migraines. If your doctor agrees, choose any aerobic exercise you enjoy, including walking, swimming and cycling. Warm up slowly, however, because sudden, intense exercise can cause headaches.

It could be a reaction to aspartame or sucrolose (also called "splenda"). I know it sounds strange, but those two food additives are complained about more than most to the FDA, and headaches are number ONE on the list of complaints. I know I always get a headache if I have any, even just a tiny sip of diet soda.
They are in foods like diet foods, nearly every gum, and are hidden in a LOT of foods, too (foods that aren't marked as 'diet'). Try reading ingredients and avoid the following - aspartame, aspar-tame, aspartic acid, sucrolose (not sucrose, sucrose is okay), splenda, neotame, saccharin and sweet-n-low. If the headaches go away, you'll know it was because of the artificial sweeteners!
Also, I recommend the book "Sweet Deception" by Joseph Mercola, which details what artificial sweeteners do, how to avoid them and how the FDA knew they were poisonous, but approved them anyway, to make a profit.

As well as looking at the diet - leaving out red wine, chocolate and cheese is always wise, have you thought about simple questions like whether you are under stress or need your eyes checked? Sometimes it's the obvious things that we miss

There is a book called, "Heal Your Headache", and that might give you some good ideas to help.

I get them when I don't eat........try caffine that helps me too...
