Hi Chrissy!

Welcome to the forum! Triggers are different for everyone. You can see our Triggers folder for some more info.

Keeping a headache diary may help you narrow down what triggers you, if it's a food, noise, smells.....

Let us know if there is anything else we can help you with!

Welcome again!

Hi Chrissy, and welcome! Glad that you found us!

We have a lot of information on both triggers and medication. I'll give you the link to our migraine triggers index, which is HERE - we have lots of articles on different kinds of migraine triggers.

You may also find these articles about medication useful:

Preventive, Abortive and Rescue Medications - What's the Difference?

Migraine Preventive Medications - Too Many Options To Give Up!

Take a look over those articles and let us know how else we can help you. Welcome again! Flower
