How many times did you try those triptans? It's worth trying each of them twice. Also, there are still three more --- Amerge, Axert, and Frova. Triptans don't work for everyone. They work for 80 -85% of Migraineurs. BUT, triptans are not the only abortives. Talk to your doctor about Migranal Nasal Spray, DHE injections, and Midrin. They're abortives too.
Hope this helps!
