Hey! Yeah I suffer from migranes too(don't remember what age they started but I know it was in high school), but I'm not on any meds and, thankfully, haven't had to be hospitalised. I don't have a trigger, but know when I'm about to have one, and if I get on top of it quick enough - I can make it less severe. One of my warning signs is fuzziness. Things seem to blur while they're in focus iykwim. If I don't manage to get to it in time, it can be anywhere from still be able to make myself do things, to in a dark room with no noise, light, smell or touch. I get headaches a few days before AF, sometimes a migrane.

rufalina mentioned accupuncture. I tried that for just my normal everyday headaches... It worked! Was sprung by AF (before I was tracking it) as there was no lead-up headache! Will have to make a mercy dash next time I have a migrane!
