How To Treat Chronic Headaches With Migraines?

I have tried cold packs, hot towels, sumatriptab tab 100 mg, relpax 40 mgibuprofen softgels,extra strength and many other meds that I cant remember, I have a headache and at least three migraine a week.. I have hone for two days and nights without sleeping and I have done the same with sleeping too much, I am getting worse as I get older and I cannot do my work iin the house like buying groceries and cooking. If I keep going down I will not be here much longer. I have had migraine since I was about eleven or fifteen years old. I can get any medicine from my doctor that will work any more but he will not give meds like before. I am at my witts end and ready to give up,

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic

I reviewed your history.
The tablets you are taking in the form of sumatritab... are for acute episodes of migraine but since you are having recurrent episodes of migraines you need to take prophylactic drugs like flunarizine or beta blockers like propranolol.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
