Migraines - Health, Fitness, and Sports

I have a migraine right now.

I can't convince my doctor to give me occipital nerve block injections so I'm just prescribed Imitrex. It works most of the time.

Sometimes I resort to wrapping a stretchy fleece blanket around my head, tying in into a knot at around eye level and tighten. Seems to provide some temporary relief.

I've gone some time without caffeine, trying to quit that habit. Gone like a month or so. Last night, I did have a Coke with my dinner. Is it possible that after a time without something your body craves or used to crave, a little taste of it is all your body needs to say, "I want MORE so here's a migraine!"

Do you get them? How do you deal with the pain and nausea and vomiting? Those are my only symptoms. Light and noise I'm okay with - when having a migraine. I mean, it doesn't exacerbate the problem. I generally don't like a lot of light and excessive noise to begin with.
