Well, Darn

Migraines suck. A lot.

I'll be back when it doesn't feel like I've got an icepick in my eye.

Also, if anyone's had any luck with any serious migraine meds, I'd love to hear what they are. The Maxalt is only being fitfully effective these days.

Mine aren't nearly as bad as yours, but I find that if I wake up with a migraine, two cups of filter coffee, a hot shower, and two painkillers ( excedrin(sp?), ibuprofen) in quick succession often helps a lot.

Caffeine used to totally do it for me (well, caffeine and narcotics: in university I'd down two cans of Coke and take two Tylenol 3s) but since caffeine now causes me more trouble than the migraines, that route is now closed. And even Tylenol 3s don't touch the pain any more.

I'm hoping I'm at the tail end of the bloody thing now, but I do just want it to stop.
