I have had migraine problems since I was but a wee lad. Some so bad I end up in bed for days, throwing up and such.
Good things: ice packs/laying down Excedrine Tension Headache
Head On - the commercials are annoying, but I swear to you, for quick relief it helps. It isn't long lasting though, use it to help you make it until soemthing else kicks in.
Orgasms(works best in conjunction with the laying down with ice) - oral is best as it is less repetitive motion, but take what you can get. This is the absolute best thing out there to help a head ache. Most are caused by blood flow, what better way to fix it than to send blood elsewhere.
Also for me chocolate ice cream was amazing until I developed lactose intolerance.

I get bad migraines as a symptom of my epilepsy. They can be pretty debilitating sometimes. Especially if I have a cold and have to cough. The best thing for me is to just not move my head. I make sure I have a good comfortable set up on the couch and I put on a movie. As long as I'm still for a while, they tend to either go away, or dull a little. If that doesn't help, a few cups of coffee seems to take the edge off.

so the orgasm thing seems to stick in my mind...........haha
i think the headaches I get prolly relate back to my freshman year of high school. I got a grade 3 concussion during baseball practice when I ran into the couch, and about 2 weeks later I got another grade 3 when A girl(hot i might add) threw a rock at my head and BAM drilled me right baove the eye.
I never really went to the docters for them, but i really beleive that explains alot about my headaches. I think i got some brain damage or something!!!
im a cheap ass though and dont have the cash to get a cat scan or anything....

I am pretty sure I had 2 concussions but I never got checked.
Why was a couch on a baseball field? I know most of a baseball game can be played sitting down, but come on!
yeah dude, orgasms, cheap and effective. Ok they can be really expensive sometimes.

I get em every day almost. The only thing that works for me is Excedrin.

Excendrine is a god send. Tension seriously is my favorite.
I forgot. Doctors can prescribe some stuff.
I was on topomax yoou take it every day. It helps lots, but it can make you hella dumb. and you wake up with small headaches, you just dont get big ones.
The side effects were too much though and I am on zonegran now. It is also a hell of a lot cheaper.

I get killer migraines. I had one at school, and I was walking up the stairs, my vision got blurred, and I damned near fell down the stairs. I think the worst ones, which I get once every other month or so, it feels like someone has a dull knife, and it's cutting through my head. That sucks too.
I usually take 5 extra strength tylenol (note: unless you're me, do NOT take 5 extra strength tylenol), and lay down with a cold wash cloth on my face.
Someone mentioned an orgasm. While that helps for a bad headache, migraines, they do nothing.
Stress and lack of sleep triggers migraines, so I try and control my state of mind.

Seriously dude, maybe not for your migraines, but for many people, orgasm works.
My doctor is actually getting known regional for migraine treatment he has developed based partially on my treatment. Which is kind of depressing when I think about it. I need a kick back.

No but I bet one of his nurses would.
What it basically comes down to is pretty much no medical science is still sure 100% what migraines are and different treatments work for different people.
Orgasm happens to be one that works for a lot of people because it changes blood flow and releases chemicals that relax and such.

Believe in Excedrin, my best friend was killed as a result of all that bullshit. Believe in that.
