Migraine headache has two types of treatment. One is preventive therapy, by which headache is prevented. The second is abortive therapy, in which headache is treated after it occurs. The therapy you need will be decided based on the frequency, severity and type of headache. Kindly keep a diary and note down the duration and type of headache. Consult a neurologist or a neurosurgeon and follow up with them regularly. Drug has to be titrated and hence will take some time to control.

There are multiple causes for your health problem .your medical history is inadequate. Provide details like your job nature, diet, lifestyle, sleep habits .stress etc .there are disease triggers hiding here. Provide all blood test results and all other investigation test results like scan, echo,tmt etc, if you have done them medicine prescription list with doctors name and qualification not provided. This is to make sure if your Dr. is a good fit for your disease the root cause of your problem has not been diagnosed by your Dr. because he has not done the 4 inflammatory markers, 12 vitamin and 8 mineral levels blood tests. Free general advice will not work because finding your disease triggers and fixing them is time consuming. You only get what you pay. Migraine will only respond to diet, lifestyle changes and supplements and not to medicines. Change diet, lifestyle and your doctor if you want a cure and not a control for your disease. Treat the root cause of the disease and not the symptom or disease, if you are serious about your health ,value your health take a consultation.
