Anyone else have these and know good meds? Long term is there any thing I need to watch out for, my body doesnt push the pain button for no reason, i wish i could know what is goin on up there.

I know for a FACT that most bottled water is packed full of chemicals, mainly chlorine! I worked for a company that tested many of the popular bottled water brands and also the tap water..(the tap water actually contained less chlorine and chemicals then all the comercial bottled water we tested)
My best advice is to invest in a really good water purifier.
I have been plagued with migraine headaches for years as well. These type of headaches run in my family..which is interesting in itself, as I wouldn't think they are gentetic? I try to avoid medication-especially prescription-at all costs!
What I do, and it always works, is lay somewhere dark and quiet, make sure the room or area is colder then the norm, get a warm to hot washcloth and cover and press it into your head(it helps to have someone else running back and forth heating it for you as the heat fades rather quickly) Usually within an hour, my headache subsides into a more dullness, or fades..or you may even fall asleep.
Good Luck!
