Anyone heard of anything out there that is natural that helps migraines? Mine are hormone releted also stress/lack of sleep can bring them on. I have been working with a counselour about the possibility of weaning off the topamax. Im on 100mg. Ive been on it a year, its worked but im still having side affects, as with anything. But this is the only thing that has worked. I used to have as many as 10 headaches a month. Now 1 or 2. Do I dare even try to get off this???My eyes are dry and I cant think right, i even feel self conscious. Im trying to get through college, so this really sucks but so do migraines. Any one have any ideas??

ok, I think Ive weighed out my options I should just stay on topamax, Maybe cut down dosage,although I only take 100mg. Im too afraid they will come back if I get off this. I dont reallt think anything natural will work. Somtimes you forget where you were I tried to take 75 mg instead of 100mg and I could sleep at night. I think it will be hard to get off this stuff too.
