Does anyone with migraine have a very sore neck?

I am on Memantine and Sumatriptan, both of which seem to be working. However, the Sumatriptan knocks out the migraine but does nothing for the terrible sore, stiff neck. (Always on the left side.) So although I get pain relief in my head, the neck is so sore I cannot stand it. I often end up lying down with the heating pad on my neck but the pain is not eliminated. Help!

  1. Hello, i have something similar.
    Since i have Ajovy. my migraine is a lot better, almost gone except for the prodrome symtomes very nauseus and dizziness. It also looks like the place were i have migraine is shifted to my neck and my spine. It feely has the intensty of an migraine attack and mostly at one side of my body. It's like the Ajovy prevent head migraine, but returnsot know on a different spot. It can also be very painfull. If i take a triptane it go's away, but most it comes back after a few days. Gr.
