I have had migraines for years.  My longest one was 4months long.  I had enough!  I went to MHNI (Michigan Head and Neurologic Institute) and they really helped me a lot.  Look on the internet and take a look at their web site.  People from all over the country go there and they really can help. It is expensive but some insurances cover it.  Mine covered 100%.  It is a 2 week in patient treatment.  Usually it is for patients for daily migraines like me, but they might be able to help you. Also, work to find a physician in your area that is willing to work with you on your migraines.  Maybe a neurologist or internest that is very interested in this area.  Good luck..I feel your pain..literally.
