See a neurologist: I would go see a neurologist before writing these off as "not migraines". You may be having a specific type of migraine headache caused by nerve compression. A neurologist will need to examine you and determine if they think this is the case. If so, Botox (and potentially surgery) could offer a more permanent solution than long term medication.
