hi,

ME TOO! I get migraines as soon as AF arrives, and i lasts until AF goes, but the last few months it has hung around for a week AFTER AF aswell.

Grrrrr. So I pop lots of pills (lots) as a preventative, I take Imigran and go to bed with a fan on me and a cool cloth on my forhead. I also lay my arm over my head, the pressure of my arm makes the pain a bit less.

God, they are awful arent they. I always vomit with mine, and usually vomit up the painkillers too.

I guess all you can do is sleep, sleep, and sleep.

Good luck hun, you are not alone xx
