Migraines: Sounds like you may already have a diagnosis - you say you have migraines. This is a specific diagnosis, so you need to make sure you have correct diagnosis, and if you do , are you receiving appropriate treatment for your particular type of migraine. Also, with ANY chronic pain disorder, relaxation and meditation techniques are always useful in addition, so if not currently doing these, START!

Additional comments: Advice from Dr Maes would be helpful. I too agree with your migraine diagnosis, but note you may be developing chronic daily migraine pattern. Pain meds can make far worse and should be eschewed. OTC remedies such as riboflavin, butterbur, feverfew, magnesium, CoQ-10 may be useful, but discuss with your doctor. Neurology best place to continue.
