Cut out the soda pop that has caffeine and all chocolate. I have migraines and I am finding that some of the food and drinks that I have been eating and drinking was causing the migraines.

Not everyone has to cut out soda and chocolate. Food can be a trigger, but not necessarily those ones.

@rcski10- what type of doctor are you seeing? Regular PCP? Neurologist? Headache specialist? I know you said you tried everything, but depending on what type of doctor you are seeing for them, I highly doubt that. And for a doctor to tell you to "talk it out" is pretty crappy. Yes, stress can be a trigger, and decreasing stress can help, but it's not the cause, and will not stop your migraines. I always recommend that people see a headache specialist because PCP's don't know a thing, period. Neurologists only know about 40% more, but headache specialists are really up to date on the latest research, latest treatments and such. If you don't see one, you may want to try to find one in your area.

Keeping track of your migraines might help. You might see a pattern in terms of food triggers, weather triggers, allergies, etc. That might give you another place to start to lessen your headaches. And last quick piece of advice is: don't take painkillers (even OTC like excedrin and advil) more than 2x per week for your migraines. More than that and you will make your headaches even worse.

I have found other triggers. Cheese and chocolate are my biggest two. And I have seen a neurologist, and they have ruled out any major reasons as to why I'm getting them. Part of it is hereditary. And she wasn't say your only option left is to talk it out, I'm on other meds to help prevent them. I just know that keeping things bottled up can cause them to get worse too. I don't drink many sodas as it is, but I could probably cut them out more. And I know I need to drink more water. Lol

Right, barring something physical (ex. large PFO, brain tumor, etc) doctors don't know what causes migraines. I've had mine for 30 yrs and they are also hereditary. Everyone on my mother's side has them. I have them everyday. Not many food triggers, but weather, allergies, and hormones are big ones for me. If it rains, my migraine is at least a level 8. The heat in the summer is a big trigger, as is bright sunlight.
As for doctors...if you are happy with your treatment from your doctor, that is great. You don't need another. But if it ever gets to the point where you're told you have tried everything there is, just know that's not true. Even though they are neurologists, they still don't specialize in headaches, and they are limited in the full range of migraine treatments. There is always something else out there. :)
