Migraine is a neurological disease, of which the most common symptom is an intense and disabling episodic headache. Migraine headaches are usually characterized by severe pain on one or both sides of the head and are often accompanied by photophobia (hypersensitivity to light), phonophobia (hypersensitivity to sound) and nausea.

* Fatigue
* Sore muscles
* Food intolerance
* Malaise
* Alteration in mood
* Impaired concentration
* Scalp tenderness
* Decreased energy requiring a period of rest.
* A minority of sufferers immediately after an attack feel energised, euphoric and can return to normal activities at once.

If you had to have migraines at all, AT ALL...
I mean...silent migraines, no pain...and then you run around feel like you're on speed and opium for 24 hours?
In comparison, I could probably hand that.
(Not to slight any people with silent migraines, because I know losing vision in a car is scary and disabling stuff!)
I've been using some small cold patches from the chemist and it seems to reduce the after effect to just a day instead of a couple of days.
All these tablets for during a migraine - need to invent one for the after effects as I feel they can sometime be just as bad!
