Anti-nausea med helped my headache?

Hi MichelleS,

I'm not sure I've had your exact experience, but I have found that treating the nausea of a migraine first has allowed me to treat the headache part with my migraine drugs without then throwing them up. (Sort of a cost saving measure!) Also, I've found that treating the nausea of a migraine that otherwise wouldn't budge at least made me feel better. I still had the head pain, but that became much more manageable without the debilitating nausea.

I've since found, since starting magnesium and other supplements, that the onset of my migraines is much slower and less severe, so I now have a much longer window of time to treat before nausea takes over.

Glad to hear you've discovered something that might be helpful to you!

That is interesting I have been wondering the same thing. Recently, I was sent home with some zofran after being treated with DHE in the ER. (IV DHE always makes me vomitted horribly for5 min. but it works)  In an attempt to stay out of the ER I now can give myself shots of DHE. One time I had to wait for the DHE, I was vomitting and sick at home with the pain so I took a Zofran and Stadol and fell asleep. Miraculously I woke up pain free. It seemed at the time the zofran had something to do with it?????? I don't really know but it must have some effect.
