I have been getting them lately actually. I usually start seeing weird flashes of light and everything starts to take on a yellowish hue before I get the headaches and the nausea. I become intolerant to lights and motion for an hour or two. They usually happen more or they are worse when I am under a lot of stress. Relaxing seems to help a lot. I am a 27 year old male btw. Migraines are more prevelant among women usually. Check in your pants to make sure you are not growing a chiner..
My GP has told me to try 2-3 aspirin dissolved in half a glass of water, or a nasal spray called Immigran (I think) as soon as it starts presenting. Obviously, the nasal spray works faster than pills. I haven't tried either yet as I haven't had one since. I usually take ibuproren and codeine, or naproxen, so I'm hoping simple aspirin would work better...
Obviously, check either medication isnt contraindicated for you and make sure aspirin is taken in conjunction with food.
I don't have personal experience of this working, but if it helps someone...
Do any other men suffer from migraines?
