On another site there is a women who has claimed to have found a "cure" by taking LSD. Another one says mushrooms help and a man said taking anabolic steroids has helped. I find myself very very skeptical about this. So I am curious if the experts or the community has an opinion this or has heard about this. Thank you.

TXmigrainmom,
Steroids are often used to break a Migraine that doesn't respond to other medications. They're not used as a first-line treatment becuase frequent use of steroids can have some serious negative long-term effects.
I'm aware of some research of LSD and mushrooms for cluster headaches, but I don't really know how successful they may be for treating Migraine attackis. The primary problem with trying to use them is that there is no legal way to obtain them. Even research is hampered by DEA restrictions.
I know this isn't as complete an answer as you were probably looking for, but it's the best information I have.
