Sudden onsite??

Just wondering what hit me last evening. I had managed a migraine early in the morning upon awakening. At 8pm I put a bite of my supper in my mouth and my head felt like it was going to split open. The pain and throbbing was so intense that I was frightened a blood vessel was going to burst inside my head. A minute later, my food felt like a ball stuck in my breastbone. I got very nauseous. I thought I would sleep it off but had it again upon awakening. Does this sound like a typical migraine? What happened?????

I'm not sure. Have sought out medical help? Is this unlike anything you have had before? Please go seek treatment.

That doesn't sound typical. Headaches that rush on like that...you should get checked out. Quick.

I have had something similar happen to me. I awoke with a migraine once and took something and it got rid of it completely. Then in the late afternoon hours - boom- out of nowhere - the pain hit like I was going to die! I didn't know where it had come from and it lasted for several hours after. My migraine meds didn't work for that one. Had to go get a shot. Neurologist couldn't figure it out either.

i am into my third day and am still deathly sick. Nothing helps the nausea, I keep eating to feel some relief,darn have ulcer, too I am taking fiorinal but all it does is take the edge off. It won't quit.
Tried axert yesterday, got no where.

It lasted for over three days, which I know can be typical for a migraine attack. I thought I had it kicked, on computer for 5 mins and it's coming back...FYI, just had my eyes examined.It's not that. Hope you can answer my post for advice assistance...

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
