A member asked:
Any recommendations for painkillers apart from ibuprofen and sumatriptan for chronic migraines? i'm also taking amitriptyline at night.

Migraine headaches: If you have not seen your doc you need to do so. Having said that, consider biofeedback, clinical hypnosis (www.asch.net), psychotherapy for stress management, food sensitivity testing (Great Plains lab in KS, USA has a good one), massage. Peace and good health.
