[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1767498, member: 16802"] I had my first migraine when I was 19. Well, the first headache that I was sure was a migraine, because my mom had them too and that's how she described them. I also found that an aspirin and a Coke (caffeine), taken when the first visual cues presented, seemed to keep it in check. When I figured this out, I began taking Midol. Seriously, it worked. It has caffeine and aspirin, along with a couple other OTC pain meds. That worked for a few years, then I got a divorce. The added stress of divorce and child custody battle made them worse, and more frequent. Doc offered the hydrocodone and that helped. A couple more years and I found my high school sweetheart and married her. One day when I was about 27yo, I realized I hadn't had a migraine in weeks, or was it months? Since then I can count on my fingers the number of headaches I've had. All were at stressful times in life (mostly teenagers). All that to say, I think some people are genetically predisposed to migraines and that stress factors, whether realized or not, aggravate the symptoms. [/QUOTE]
