I used to take triptans but the last 5 years I returned to ergotamine (I'm not happy with that).
Most of my migraines start during the night. I wake up with first symptoms and I get a tablet of ergotamine, sometimes two. If I stop the pain in a short time I can have a normal day.
Stress and fatigue are also very common triggers during the day.
No food triggers.
When I have a migraine I m too sensitive to noises and lights.
Most of pains are around my right eye but time to time is on the left side. It also happens to get a tension headache.
In the past I tried all kind of preventive treatments (like betablockers, flunarizine, etc...and even accupunture). Zero results.
Triptans worked well for a long time. Ergotamines works too but I don't like the side-effects (like the rebound effects and fatigue)
Do you know where to treat migraines headaches in Washington DC area?
