Great post.
I too have had migraines in the past and most recently yesterday at work. I did notice yesterday that a cold front went through the area and then I developed the migraine. Wonder if there is a correlation?

When I was younger the MD prescribed an ergot based drug, made you sleep and feel ill for hours.

I have since been using biofeed back, hand reflexology and tylenol with relief in less than 30 minutes and minimal side-effects. However after working a 12-hour nightshift on the 11th hour I got the migraine, the only difference this time is my speech was so slurred. My brain was thinking onething and my voice said something entirely different. I told dayshift, I was probably having a stroke from all the stress at work!

Everything, back to normal for nightshift tonight.

PS- I'm a medical professional at a hospital.
