Alison--
I was a chronic migraine sufferer until I started getting clusters. Here's what helps me. The nausea may be helped by eating or drinking something extremely sweet. Also try Emetrol for nausea. For pain, try 2 cups of strong, black coffee. The caffeine will dilate the blood vessels in your brain and help to alleviate the pain. When I'm sick with a migraine, I drink Diet Sprite and eat unsalted white crackers. It's the only thing I can stomach. My best advice is just to go into a very dark, quiet room and try to sleep it off. You're going to make it!
