Topomax is a medicine orignally used to treat seizures. They found through studies, that it works as a preventative treatment for migraines. It won't stop one once you get it - you take it to keep from getting them!
If you DO get one, you then can take something like Imitrex, Axert, Amerge or one of those type drugs. I can't take Imitrex either - it makes me more nauseated. I take Axert or Amerge if I get a headache. My doctor also switched my birthcontrol to a type that constantly gave me hormones so that I didn't get those high/low hormone spikes that "can" trigger the headaches.
However, I'm now off all bc medication, so we'll see how it goes!
