They really are. I never leave the house without them.
When I first started getting them my doctor gave me migraleave but they didn't even touch it.

You need to find a regime that works for you. Most people find paracetamol utterly ineffective for migraines.

DH can't take triptans as they make the pain worse and cause chest pains too. He takes ergotamine, plus full fat coke and dispersible aspirin.
