*raises hand* another mentrual migraine sufferer here. I just came back from a 2 day snowboarding trip, yesterday was ruined because of the migraine. I managed only 2 runs before I felt like I was going to chuck my breakfast and pass out from the pain. I'm sure the mountain altitude didn't help matters, nor the bright, sunny, warm conditions.

Since mine seems to be somewhat muscular related (especially in my trapezius and neck muscles), I find taking Robaxacet sometimes helps. But for the most part all they do is dent the pain and put a fog. Still does nothing for that beat-up feeling and lethargy.

I actually forgot about my butterbur extract. I also sometimes take homeopathic migraine pills with butterbur, feverfew, and 5-htp. If taken with acetominophen or ibuprophen I find it speeds things along.

Ugh, I sometimes really hate being a girl!
