I was suffering with the same thing. Of have migraines that lasted for a week and were so bad that the only thing that relieved the pain a tiny bit just for a second was throwing up. O would get these atleast once a month. My Dr put me on amitriptyline, and it seems to keep them away for the most part. I went from having them fairly often to maybe 3 or 4 times a year. I know your pain. It's like you would be better to just cut your head off because that pain couldn't be as bad, but once you find the right medication, it gets better. But for now, if you haven't tried it, I take a few migraine Tylenol (now called ultra relief in Canada) and then I take a few gravol, even if I don't feel nauseous. For some reason it helps.
