Suggest Treatment For Migraine

I am a 40-year-old female. Height 168 cm, weight 59.7 kg. I am suffering from recurrent migraine attacks over the last 40 days or more. The first one was 4 days prior to my menstrual period and it happend while i was about to go to sleep and was meditating lying on my bed. I felt a slight pain at the starting point of my right eyebrow and then could see a curved sword kind of glowing thing wiht closed eyes. I have taken a levocitrizine tablet before going to bed. I was scared and took a paracetamol immediately. This aura lasted for some time and then i started getting pressure and pain in the head and i felt i was losing my memory and my face going numb, and even my right hand went numb. After sometime i regained consciousness but my headache and pressure feeling numbness and tingling over the face continued. After this episode i had repeated episodes with aura and headache within the next 2 weeks about 6 times. I was unable to sleep since then and a kind of fear gripped me. Again, then next attack came two days prior to me last menstrual period and this followed one more attack after 3rd day of my period. I was on Lupron Depot shot for 3 months and my cycle was stopped for 5 months since the injection. After that the first menstural cycle was uneventful. I was attending some meditation classes after that and it is surprising i suddenly started feeling quite sensitive and this migraine attacks started just before the second menstrual cycle after the Lupron Depot shot. I dunno if it is related to that, could be a withdrawal symptom from Lupron Depot ??? i am still facing problem sleeping and feeling weak and tired all the time and had stomach upsets in between, hyperacidic vomitings and twice diarrhea. Neurologists prescription for migraine prevention i was unable to take due to side effects. Another physician prescribed me Revotril (clonazepam) for 3 days and Tryptomer for a week. Suggested to go for an EEG and MRI too.
