Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was having one of the worst migraines of my life. I went to the er and got a shot for the pain. About 30 minutes later I started to feel hot all over and the headache suddenly went away. I have had shots for the migraine pain many times before but they never made me feel hot all over.

1. Treatment of acute attack : can be done by taking simple pain killers at the onset of headache to certain migraine specific pain medicine depending on the severity of attack.
2. Prevention of further attacks; This can be done by taking certain medicine on daily basis for 6-12 months. In my practice I advise my patients to take Tab Sibelium for 3 months and ask them to come back for check up after 3 months.
I advise you ask your doctor for the prescription of the same and start using it. It will bring down your frequency of migraine attacks drastically.
Any clarifications feel free to ask
