I have suffered from migraines for 25 years. I have tried many different ways to abort and prevent them.i had them everyday . It was awful, finally i decided to  take things into my own hands. I took myself off all the meds it took 6 weeks, that was bad too! Then ia had a preop visit with my doctor for some knee surgery, i told her what i did( she was mad) she took my BP and all that and my BP was 142 over 102(high)she was concerned about that so she put me on varapamil 120 mg once a day. Much to my surprise it is working. I can go days without one. That is the best feeling in the world.I just thought i would share some good news. Never give up ther is hope. Thanks  Liz
