i had a spinal headache after my epideral and they told me to drink sugar soda like Pepsi and it helped a little, had to get a blood patch, but i did drink some coffee this morning and it has subsided along with the med.  I truly think this is my first one, i mean the light hurt my eyes, my eyes were squinting, and it felt like it was in my eyebrows, it was horrible last night, thank GOD though it is gone.  Just wasn't sure if it was from the detox or something else...I have good insurance so I might see about getting the imitrex, especially if i get another migraine, mom says they help alot if you take it when it first starts otherwise if you wait...you're screwed..

Brit, For me alot of times caffeine will help alot, or exendrin migrane...If that doesn't help and i can feel it moving around my head like a tight band, then i know i better take a imitrex or i am in trouble, and so is my family, because i can't function...But i do try to save them for a terrible one, because 9 pills are like 280.00 dollars....Oh, and most times i will just take a small peice, then repeat if i need....

Thanks, my mom has some serious migrains and she takes imitrex and it helps a lot. I did take an over the counter migraine med with caffeine in it and it helped a lot.  I am doing good though other than this dam* headache!  Thanks again guys

Yes, i also had them...I am not sure if I had them due to detox or not, because i have had them off and on since i was 16...The only medicine that works for me is imitrex...It is non-narcotic..Also i use phenegan so i don't throw it up...I hope you get something to help!!
