My migraines went away, completely. They were caused by a severe whiplash, due to car accident, which totaled my car. I was sitting at a stoplight, when my car was hit in the driver's side, at full speed. I felt OK--a little weak--and played the piano at a fashion show that afternoon. The next day, the pain hit. Traction helped relieve pressure, restore circulation, and aline the vertebrae. Try a neck-support pillow. Two Advil, taken immediately, help more than percocet or tylenol with codeine. The headaches would come and go, and, with me, it made a difference how I moved. This is worth considering, if you are athletic. Everyone is different, but I'm perfectly fine, if I don't jerk my head, if I don't reach upward too long, and if I don't sit on the floor to play games. I can ski (if I don't crash), bicycle, hike, play tennis, swim, yoga, dance--just not any fast, jerky movements. The headaches last 3-4 days.
I only get headaches one side of my head--half a headache. I feel so sorry for you people who get migraines in your whole head. :(
