I have always had a lot of headaches but last night it was different. During dinner, I started having a headache and it progressed throughout the evening. It was throbbing and hurting all over, but more so in the front part of my head (usually my headaches are painful all over but seem to originate in my neck/back of head). There have been times where I felt mildly nauseous during a headache, but last night I thought I was seriously coming down with something. I thought for sure I was going to throw up but didn't. I took some ibuprofen and was able to fall asleep around midnight. I woke up again at 1:30 and it was much better. I have a mild headache right now but not too bad.
Does this sound like a migraine? If so, what do you take for it? Have you noticed any triggers?

To me it does sound like a migraine. Triggers for me are not eating on time, lack of sleep, certain smells (cigarettes, lavender, peach, strong coffee). I can wake up with them also and still don't have any idea why that happens. For some people too much caffeine can trigger them, some it is chocolate. I have been dealing with them for years. I am on a VERY strong prescription for when I get migraines. Over the counter doesn't work for me. But I have had several people tell me that Excedrin Migraine works or the strong Tylenol.
Sorry you had to deal with it. They can get so debilitating. I usually lock myself in my bedroom where it is as dark as I can make it, no sound other than a quiet fan, and I bury myself under the covers.
I hope you find what works for you.

I don't have a very good memory but was treated for migraines in my early 20's. I don't remember what the headaches felt like compared to how they are now, though. I just assumed that my current headaches were tension headaches, although they do sometimes last for more than a day. Usually, if I go to bed with a headache I will have the same headache in the morning. So I was surprised that it was better today. I thought I had food poisoning or was coming down with a stomach bug that was also causing a headache. Luckily not!

If ibuprofen took care of it, it wasn't a migraine. Just a strong headache or sinus headache since it was located more in front. Those can make me nauseous. I've been having sinus headaches everyday lately thanks to all the front moving through and just keep hoping they don't go migraine on me. If it was a migraine you would have been sensitive to light and sound. You wouldn't want to be touched. You would want a cold dark quiet place to be in misery. They suck.

Migraines are usually located on one or the other side of the head or both sides but can be in the neck as well. They can be acute or throbbing. Nausea is often associated with them. Darkness and quiet can help. DD just saw a neurologist at the Mayo who said that riboflavin (vitamin B) has been shown to be just as effective as several drugs given to reduce frequency of migraines. He put her on a 100mg dose 2x a day (your body excretes the unused in your pee and your pee color may change). He didn't take her off the other medicine she is on but I'm hoping her normal neurologist will start the decrease of it when we see him in October.
So start taking vitamin B and make an appointment with a neurologist is my suggestion for you. Also pay attention to your triggers

All of these have been diagnosed as migraines by my doctor. I have only had a few that I felt like I couldn't deal with light and sound. Migraines can be controlled with regular otc meds but it depends on their severity. During the day, I mix the red sudafed with advil and tylenol and that controls ear pain/touch ones and at night I take Frova if they last more than a few days. My trigger is a drop in Estrogen.

Very true peppermintpatty we all experience them differently and different types. I get cluster as well as occular migraines where I lose my vision temporarily. The occular ones themselves do not have any pain but for me they usually turn into a regular full blown migraine. I just associate them in general with mind blowing pain.

Sounds like a really bad headache to me, not a migraine. Although my nuerologist said you can get many types all with the same person. So maybe it was?
I thought most people don't start getting migraines later in life?

Everyone is very different with how theirs present (although there will be a few common factors). My neurologist said that he is amazed at the scope of different symptoms that his patients have and not having "all of them" doesn't mean you don't have migraine.
I have never been light sensitive (yes to sound) or have the feeling I don't want to be touched nor want to lie in a cold dark room. I want to have a warm room with a cold compress on my forehead. Yes they do suck but generalising isn't helpful.

Any kind of headache sucks. I take a daily med to prevent migraines, so thankfully, I have very few these days (knock on wood!). For "regular" headaches, I find Excedrin Migraine to be more helpful than Ibuprofin. If you have headaches that often, I'd talk to your doctor about it. It could be stress related, or migraines, vision related, blood pressure related, etc...
I hope you feel better!

Everyone is different in what they respond to - Excedrin Migraine, naproxen sodium (Aleve), or mix of Sudafed (the real one) with one of the other two is what usually works for me. Save

I've been having sinus headaches everyday lately thanks to all the front moving through and just keep hoping they don't go migraine on me. If it was a migraine you would have been sensitive to light and sound. You wouldn't want to be touched. You would want a cold dark quiet place to be in misery. They suck. I have to say there are many types of migraines, and the above isn't always true. For example, I get migraines without headache quite often. I know it's a migraine because of other symptoms, which may include the light and sound sensitivity, nausea, tingling and a general feeling of being "off." I occasionally get migraines that give me severe head pain without the other symptoms and without aura. I think it sounds like a migraine because of the different quality of the pain, the throbbing, the fact that it was more on one side than the other, and the nausea. And for someone who rarely gets migraines, ibuprofen and sleep might be enough to kick it. Triggers vary widely from person to person. Mine include dehydration (even being mildly dry) and chocolate. Also not eating for many hours while awake, and staying up too late. But most of the migraines I get I can't point to a trigger. As for treatment, nothing works all the time. Know that you can cause rebound headaches with only a few uses of pain killers a month so use them sparingly. My preferred medication for all but the worst pain is Excedrin Migraine (and I have, like others here, found that the brand name works better than any generic). Second choice is Aleve. I can't tolerate ibuprofen. For very bad pain I take vicodin, but only a max of 1-2 times a month. I'm also on a preventive medication (propranalol), and I actually think it is finally working. I read recently that it can take a year or more to work, and I have been on it maybe 14 months or so, and in the last two months I've had way fewer migraine days. I was just about to give up on it, but I'm sticking with it now. Gatorade plus magnesium can sometimes stop a migraine that's just starting. Caffeine is always helpful (unless you take a lot of caffeine every day anyway; and caffeine withdrawl can definitely cause migraines). You can take magnesium with any of the pain meds, but don't take too much or it will give you diarrhea. I take a prescription, phenergan, for the nausea. I don't find any OTC meds help much with that part. Ginger ale or Coca Cola (the real stuff, no generics or diet) help settle my tummy. You may not get another migraine; hopefully you won't. Just be sure to be worked up if you suddenly start getting frequent severe or very different headaches to be sure there isn't an underlying problem.

peppermintpatty, I have lots of different kinds of migraines too; I don't often see people with so many kinds. Migraines are the weirdest things. I personally believe there is a connection between migraines and more serious brain disorders, and that the connection hasn't been figured out yet. I do know that women who have migraine with aura when young have an increased risk of stroke when they are older. The variety of symptoms attributable to migraines is enormous. Oh, speaking of which. . . the eclipse last week triggered a migraine for both myself and my daughter and many people I know on FB. We had about 92% here, and the light was weird, and my daughter and I both found it was exactly how light looks with some of our migraines. We think it kind of tricked our brains into thinking we had a migraine, and then we did have one. It was so odd! It was very cool to know that DD and I experience the exact same "change" in our vision.

I get an aura with my migraines; flashing zigzag lights, and a blind spot are both telltale signs. If I can catch it early enough, I can take 3-4 ibuprofen and slam some Diet Coke, and that can keep my migraine pain down to a dull minimum. I get queasy, have the headache, my vision and hearing get super-sensitive, and then I feel *hung over* when it finally passes.
My triggers used to be stress / hormonal shifts, but since menopause, now they seem to be more related to weather / pressure changes, and sometimes bright lights. If there's a flickering fluorescent light in the hallway or in my office, or if there's a glare off a windshield that reflects off the window of my office just *right* (or wrong, you might say), I'd say I have a 1 in 3 chance of getting a migraine.
eta: and, for the record, I had a LOT more WORSE migraines when I was younger, always had horrible hormonal shifts / periods, and I DID have a stroke, when I was 39 years old.
eta2: my boyfriend has started getting more frequent ocular migraines, where he gets the aura / vision issues in one eye, but without the *headache* pain symptoms. They take about a half hour from start to finish. But it's still a type of migraine.

Not sure who mentioned the B2 / Riboflavin - but for my daughter she need 400 mg per day. We found a product called Migrelief on Amazon that she takes every day, morning and night - and it helps tremendously!! She can't miss more than a few days without symptoms coming back. Hope that helps!

I get migraines and they seem to be triggered by changes in the weather (right before a storm comes through) and hormones. They have gotten worse since I had children. Recently on the advice of my physician I began taking magnesium daily. There is research suggesting that this is helpful.
Interestingly I took magnesium through my last pregnancy to help with restless legs. I didn't have a migraine the entire time I was pregnant. And now since I started the magnesium again, I've only had one migraine in the last 2 months. Might be worth discussing with your physician.

Those are the type of migraines I used to get as well. Awful stuff and my headache would linger for a few days after. I think mine were hormonal related as well, but taking magnesium supplements have eliminated them. Still get vertigo, but thankfully no more migraines. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it won't get worse once menopause hits.

Then 2 years ago they kicked it up a notch. I've got them somewhat under control now and only get a couple a month. I really recommend the book The Woman's Guide to Understand Migraines by Susan Hutchinson. She talks about all the phases of womanhood from puberty to menopause. Taking birth control, IUDs, having a hysterectomy, estrogen patch, which OTC and prescription drugs to take for which situations. Which hormones do what - drop in estrogen causes your hormonal migraines during ovulation (often) and menstruation. I take Frova which is good for 24 hours, it's slow to kick in though. For me smell - cheap scents like Bath and Body works lotions and sprays make me want to vomit and can almost trigger a migraine for me, but make me sick when I have one. Sound when I have one. Light doesn't bother me. I don't get aura. I can get tension induced ones. They can be on one side one time then the move, top or back or wherever. A low grade build for a few days before it gets bad enough to take something where the prescription meds will work. Gluten also gives me a daily headache. Staying hydrating and eating breakfast and supper on time when I'm on the verge of getting on will help. Sorry there is so many of us suffering on this board

Yeah, having so many different kinds really stinks because I never know what I am going to have. Luckily, I can usually function pretty well with them and my trigger is estrogen so I can plan ahead. Actually, Midol works well for me because of the caffeine component. I take adderall normally so I can't drink coffee/sodas with caffeine. I can tolerate the Midol and the added pain meds help.

My daughter suffer migraine and has had extensive testing and specialists. Spinal taps lots of stuff and is now on a daily pill that helps. She just went to a new dentist who asked if she got headaches because she has a strong overbite. This can cause major headache problems. Just suggesting you might consider that when seeking help. She is going to follow up with the dentist to see if anything can be done. Good luck.

I'll have to start writing down when I have headaches and see what triggers I find. When it rains I seem to notice more headaches as well.
I forgot that I have been diagnosed used with vestibular migraines about 5 years ago but haven't had any since being pregnant with my youngest. Those didn't involve headaches but I was nauseous, off balance and a few times had severe vertigo.

Migraines are usually located on one or the other side of the head or both sides but can be in the neck as well. They can be acute or throbbing. Nausea is often associated with them. Darkness and quiet can help. DD just saw a neurologist at the Mayo who said that riboflavin (vitamin B) has been shown to be just as effective as several drugs given to reduce frequency of migraines. He put her on a 100mg dose 2x a day (your body excretes the unused in your pee and your pee color may change). He didn't take her off the other medicine she is on but I'm hoping her normal neurologist will start the decrease of it when we see him in October. So start taking vitamin B and make an appointment with a neurologist is my suggestion for you. Also pay attention to your triggers Lisadv, I was at Whole Foods yesterday looking for vitamin B so I could start taking this for my migraines and they had two different kinds-Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B2. There wasn't just a Vitamin B. Can you check with your DD and find out which one she is taking? Thanks so much in advance. Currently I'm taking Topamax as a preventive and also a Magnesium supplement from my Integrative Medicine doctor.
