for me - as my doctors have told me since I was 16, MY normal everyday headache is like a migraine for most people. I have a very high thresh-hold for pain. He says that if I get a bad one, then I need to be real careful. Luckily I am not seeing spots, having dizzy spells, or anything odd like that, but it is a massive throb going from the base of head all the way around to the temples, both sides, but the right side is worse. I am able to function, but the pain is getting bothersome since it won't go away.
I used to take Caffergot, but now I can't get it anymore.
