Answers:

I've probably tried every alternative migraine cure out there: cut out caffeine, kava kava, st john's wort, cut out sugar, etc. etc. None of them worked.

When I get a migraine I start with Excedrine migraine. If its not too bad that works. Otherwise I take Imitrix. I know its wicked expensive but its the only thing that actually works for me. If I try to not take any meds I get completely disabled and vomit uncontrollably when I get a migraine. Then its an emergency visit to the hospital for a shot of demerol and I sleep for 18hrs.

Check into different insurance plans. Some cover all or nearly all the cost for prescription migraine meds. If you don't have insurance check with the DHS or your county health department.

Good luck.
