Migraines

I think for me, lack of proper sleep, and stress are my two major stresses. Once my head starts hurting, and the auras start, I know what is coming. My insurance only allows me to get 6 Relpax every 21 days. That also stresses me, when I think I might run short with my medication. I have tried every thing out there, except Botox, I don't know enough about that to make a decision to try it for my migraines. I started getting migraines, when my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer back in 1996.... It feels like it's been for ever with them. They last any where from 1 to 3 days, I wish they would just go away.
