    Scarabin...that story is crazy, and pretty scary. What did the doctors say was wrong? Did this migrane flare up just come out of nowhere?

    I tried taking that Excedrin Migrane stuff, it doesn't work for me, just makes me have to take a piss every 10 minutes, I guess from all the caffinee in it.

    The first time I got a migrane that altered my vision I thought I was really going to go blind or that I was about to have an anyuerism and die, I had never experinced it before and it scared the crap out of me. Now I find myself doing everything I can to try and not trigger one. I have to have coffee at the same time everyday, no "caffene free" beverages (that instantly triggers a bad headache for me), and I try not to jostle my head around to much. If I sleep in too late on the weekends or change my sleeping habits I'm done for for the whole day. Too much dairy seems to do me in too. It sucks having to deal with this, whats this shot you can take? Some kind of adrenaline?

    I started getting migraines in 6th grade. Dr. said it was tension/stress, nothing else could be found. I got them at least once or twice a week. I was going through every kind of pain medication that I could find. Finally none of them worked.

    About 3 years ago I started doing the stretching exercises from this guy http://www.mattfurey.com/combat_…

    I no longer suffer from any migraines. I didn't know doing this would solve the problem. But I found out later that the blood vessels in the back of the neck and head get constricted by the muscles, cutting off the blood supply, then causing the migraine. Now that they are stretched out and flexible, all is good.
