I had the absolute worse migraine ever in my life. I swore I was dying I couldn't see, hear and I was so disorientated. It was so scary. I never went the the ER before. We went at 3am and got home at 8am.

Does anyone have a good medication for migraines. They gave me a shot of something in the hospital. But I still have a headache. They suggested mortin.

Any advice? TIA

I went to the ER about 2 years ago for the same thing, I couldn't take it anymore. They too gave me a shot that helped. I went to a new neurologist and told her the Imitrex didn't work for me and she prescribed Frova which makes a HUGE difference. I said this the other day...those of you on the pill...I got one in the last 6 months since I stopped the pill. I was in huge denial that it could be caused by that, and the doctors didn't even say that might be it, but I know my body and as soon as I stopped (which is the LAST thing I wanted to do), no more migraines. Good luck and feel better!

You poor thing! I have heard that migraines are really awful. The high school age daughter of friend at work is going through this right now. She had been getting them everyday. She saw a neurologist who was not much help. But she's trying to figure out if it's diet related. Her mom is a librarian & did lots of research. She is slowly re-introducing foods into her diet and she hasn't had one in like 10 days.
