For me it's the opposite. When i get migraines the only thing that helps is an overdose of caffeine.
Perhaps withdrawal symptoms
I doubt it. Migraine specific pain medicine often has caffeine in it. I get ocular migraines every year or so and goodies or Excedrin migraine (just a blend of nsaids, acetaminophen, and caffeine) do a good job
I had an ocular migraine once, i was blind for 2 hours it was not good.
I would hate to have them regularly im sorry for you
It's ok! Over the years I've learned a lot of tricks to help me deal with them, and notice when they're coming on. They've also slowed down in frequency quite a bit as I age.
