  There are other options (such as taking special contraception pills to prevent the migraines), but all these require prescription, so you should consult a doctor about them. Another options is taking preventive medications (similar to the relpax), but then again - you should consult a doctor first.
  
  A list of natural treatments fro migraine can be found here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Migraine#Herbal_and_nut...), but make sure you neurologist is aware of whatever you intend to take before you start to take it

  I have the same problem and take Topomax to prevent the migrains. Also make sure you get enough rest right before you start. There seems to be a correlation. It took about 2 months to fully work but at least the first migrain after I started taking Topomax wasn't as severe.

  I had sever Migraines. I started Prozac and ever since i have not had the problem. The only other time I have not had Migraines in my life was when i was pregnant, but my mom told me it was not a cure =)lol!
  Talk to your Dr. about Prozac. It beats taking Imetrex shots while having one.
