Is there help for chronic migraine headache?
I sometimes have a tension headache, but everyday I have a migraine. Depakote ER 1000 mg daily is helping, only been taking it 3 weeks.

1. There is a medicine out there that is called Imatrex, you may try that maybe that will help,
I get migrain headaches all the time and I take IB Profine 800 mg.
2. Go to a doctor is my best advise.
3. relaxation techniques has helped me, sounds like you need a change in the way you look at life and work.
4. If there is a pain management specialist in your area you may want to investigate nerve blocks. Here is a link but go to the net and find others. I've had a cervical nerve block and today an occipital nerve block. If there is no specialist in your area, it may be worth it to travel to a nearby large area. Certain foods and chemical smells also can trigger a migraine. I just discovered that one Excedrin helps but two are too much.
5. If they are sugar migraines a reduced sugar intake would help. See item 71 in http://www.rheumatic.org/sugar.htm .
6. If it is a reoccurring intense pain it could be considered a cluster migraine. I would recommend visiting the following website in the sources section.
