Chick I had that twice...migraine so bad that I was sick to my stomach. Now when I feel one coming on I take medication. It stops it immediately.

I think vomiting helps release the veins that are restricted in the head. I always felt better after throwing up too. I have Rolpax now but haven't had to use it since getting my head injected full of Botox. My scalp will be wrinkle free!

Be careful with that Emetrix (sp) because it's bad on the heart.

Hannelore,I didn't feel better after vomiting, it made it worse. A shot of demerol and 3 days in bed helped cure the last one. Moving out on my own cured them forever.

I guess mine were stress induced. I am always concerned with headaches because Mom had an aneurysm.

Dianne, you had Botox for the headaches, am I right? Do you have to continue the shots?

Botox?? Never heard of its use for migraines. What does it do? I just learned that my oldest daughter fainted in the bathroom and landed on her face! She bled and her husband had to take care of her, this all from eating lasagne from the grocery store and getting horrible stomach cramps and a migraine.

How is your daughter doing today, Newleaf? Was it packaged lasagne or from the deli? Hope she feels better.

Hope your daughter is better.

I get Botox injections about every eight months. I know when it's wearing off because the Migraines will start again.

The doctor will create a map from where the pain starts and how it spreads. So, they inject the middle of my forehead and work toward the temples, above my ears and up toward the top of my scalp.

I need to say that some people have inward Migraines so Botox doesn't work on them. I must have outward ones because it does the trick for me. The only way you know is by trying. My dermatologist does mine.

I would ask if it hurts, but I'm sure the pain from the migraine is much worse.

Thanks for sharing that information.
