Close Migraine Headaches

I have been suffering from severe (unbearable would be a better word, but not in my official diagnosis) chronic migraines for about 5 years, I've been dealing with migraines for much longer (Probably since I was 5 or 6)

Treatments

This did not work for me... It was just one more thing to try :)

The Triptan's have done nothing but make my migraines worse!

I took dairy, alcohol, chocolate, and a bunch of other things out of my diet for a while, we have pretty much ruled out food triggers.
