Along the lines of sinus pressure, CNS fluid stagnation in the skull may also cause migraine sufferers problems - need to see a good chiropractor to fix that, usually caused by C1 and/or C2 being displaced, happens to me frequently. Luckily it only causes visual migraines for me - have only had a disabling migraine once in my life when I was 18 at the TN World's Fair - some plant at our campsite caused a massive hay fever reaction - don't get headaches at all nowadays, only got them in my younger years from partying too much.

Absolutely I had migraines when I moved down to Florida many years ago. Doc prescribed muscle relaxers an Antihistamines, the antihistamines did the trick. Turns out allergies can come back with a vengeance when you relocated. I never had migraines previous to the move.

Sharinky - The few times I’ve had to go to the ER for a headache, the first treatment I’m offered is a combination of acetaminophen, some type of NSAID, and antihistamine. I have been told that they figure one (or more) of those will resolve the issue the vast majority of the time, especially if the patient isn’t used to treating the headaches.

Lemmiwinks may be able to confirm this rationale.

Try coffee. It's anti-inflammatory or something. I've had migraines since I was little, and coffee's the best cure I've found. Icepacks and painkillers can be helpful too. Especially the ice. Even if you find yourself in a situation where your headache's seemingly incurable, at least the ice provides a less painful sensation. It's a good distraction.

One pill I've been recommended is excedrin or do your own research through Canada Drugs website. It's a mix of some painkiller and caffeine. Some people will just take caffeine pills too.
