Taking blood pressure medication and I have not have a migraine in 3 months. I have been eating cake and other bad things without a problem.

That's great to hear. Anyone with migraines doesn't deserve them.
I'm currently trying blood pressure medication for my migraines, and hopefully I'll get a good result too.

What medication is it?

For me, it is Atenolol Ericanicole :)

I don't think the particular medication matters, at least to me, and two different drugs eliminated migraines. And I have done some things which in the past would absoutely have guaranteed migraines. Having food at a regular time was necessary and missing lunch by even an hour would give me a bad headache. I have eaten plenty of cake and bad foods. With the medication that has not been a problem and likewise stressful situations have not created a migraine.

My doctor thought elevated pressure was causing the migraines and it turned out he was right.
