I have suffered from migraines since my 20s. I have gone to several neurologists up north, several MRIs thought out the years and was given several different prescriptions. My migraines get worse during allergy season. My migraines usually start off with an aura. I have tried Allegra, Claritin and had some luck with a low dose of Benadryl. I was on a prescriptions specifically for migraines but I didn't care for the side effects. I was on Nortriptyline and Imitrex and couldn't handle the side effects. Some people do very well with those medicines. Migraines can run in families, my father and brothers also had history of migraines. My father had luck with a drug that has been taken off the market. It is best to ask a doctor to diagnose if you are suffering from migraines. I just recently tried melatonin because my doctor told me to give it a try.
