Have you tried a excedrine headache if the other stuff isn't working or does funny things to your system. Have you seen a nuerologist so they can find out what is causing this.

I'm with angela_allen on this one. I get migraines, especially when the weather changes, and I take Excedrin Migraine. It works really well. There's only been a few times when it hasn't but that's only because I didn't catch it in time and I was too sick to take anything.

I have to say next time you get a migraine if the meds the doctor give you don't work get a cup of coffee and drink.. Coffee is supposed to help. If it doesn't then get two freezer masks one to wear regular and the other to put on the back of your neck and then confin yourself in darkness. I'm sorry but if O.C. and prescirption meds don't work then I would just try hit and miss somethings to help with the symptons. I take shots for the migraines that I have when I wake up that are already there I have pills that you are supposed to take when you feel one coming on. I know that once you have one that establishes itself it's dang near impossible to get rid of the dang thing.

Hmm, I wonder if you can get some type of hormonal headache? Could that be it? Because your hormone levels would have been very different during pregnancy. If that's it maybe an endocrinologist could help.

I suffer chronic headaches and have for the past 22 years. I also get migraines (1-2 a month sometimes). You can use either peppermint oil or tea trea oil to help with headaches. All you have to do is open the bottle and inhale the aroma. It helps ease, and sometimes gets rid of, the headaches. Try not to get the oil inside your nose. You can put a small dab beneath your nostrils, if you want. A very small dab. If my headaches are severe, I take ibuprofen. If you can get your doctor to prescribe it, Naproxen is (in my opinion) good too. You can also get it over the counter (Aleve). I've been told that drinking a lot of water helps too. I've experimented with this and it does seem to calm the headaches some. Hope that helps.
