Is it possible for ferrous sulfate to cause migraines that last all day long?

Doubt it: frankly I suspect anemia is a more likely cause; there are several correlational studies to support this. Furthermore, it is easy to see how lower iron and anemia could tirgger a change in the tone of vessels... leading to migraine.
