[quote=Anonymous]25+ years of migraines here. I’ve had at least three migraines which have landed me in the hospital on an IV. Sometimes it’s the only way to break a cycle. Motrin or other OTC pain relievers do nothing for my headaches. I can’t take imitrex due to rebound headaches. Ubrevly usually works for me but sometimes I have to take a second dose. I was on topamax for a short period which really helped my migraines but too many side effects.

Other ideas:
I bought an eye mask from Amazon that plugs in and delivers continuous heat. You can spray it with water so it is moist heat.
I like using an old school fillable ice pack. I fill it with ice cubes and water and it stays cold for a long time. I alternate between heat and ice. 
Dark room with minimal stimulation. I sometimes listen to guided meditations on you tube. 
I often drink a coke. Sometimes I also put a cold coke can on the back of my neck and roll it. 
I take B6 and vitamin D regularly. Magnesium did nothing for me.

Sorry you are suffering with this! Good luck!
