I get migraines quite frequently, mostly due to stress. I've had them since I was 8...it sucks. I have no food triggers, just stress apparently. I've taken all sorts of stuff for prevention, but they all make me feel like shit, so much so that I'd rather deal with the migraine. Usually I get flashing lights in my field of vision and then I go blind in one of my eyes for about an hour or so, then my world ends. Lots of fun. I take Excedrin (Migraine, Extra Strength, they're both the same-don't believe me? Check the ingredients on the bottle.) If the Excedrin doesn't work then I have Midrin, but a lot of times that's like taking candy because I wait too long...oh well. With 2 little kids it's difficult to sequester myself in a noise and light deprived room, but I muddle through.
