Something I have noticed ...

Something I have noticed about using the life-saving Migraine medications and their effect on migraines. Back in the day when suffering was the common way to deal with undiagnosed migraines I always vomited towards the end of the migraine. Then the migraine would inevitably get worse for a few minutes but I would then be able to sleep for about 12 hrs. I would wake up feeling refreshed and as though i had been washed clean. Now I take Maxalt. Which has made life available to me again. But I realized that I don't get nauseous and throw up anymore. And the migraines last longer and I don't wake up with that cleaned out fresh feeling.

Has anyone else had this experience?
