I had the same problems, mine got so bad, they were starting to wake me up while I slept, no over the counter drugs was working!.!.!.I always had a currousity about ACUPUNCTURE, but never had a real reason to try it, so of course I thought what the heck, let me go in and try it!.!.!.it worked and IMMEDIATELY!!! The first visit was for an hour and half, then the following week I returned for the same amount of time, then the week after that, inside a month's time, they were gone and I have yet to have one since!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sorry that you are in such pain hon!. Migraines are difficult to deal with especially at your age!. I know because I started having them around your age and still get them today (age 43)!. What you need to do is speak to your mom to get an appointment with your doctor, there are really good preventive medications out there that will halt your migraines in their tracks!. There is no reason why you should have to suffer so badly with this pain!. You can also take a look at the following website that caters to people who have migraines!. I wish you luck and pain free days in the near future!

I would definitely recommend seeing a neurologist about the migraines!. I was having really bad migraines last year and my neurologist prescribed me a low dosage of topamax to be taken on a daily basis and maxalt to be taken only when I start feeling a headache coming on!. Those medicines were extremely helpful and I rarely have any migraine complaints now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
