I get both CH and Migraines.....I'm chronic CH....rarely do I get the migraines. I have had migraines, however, since I was about 17 years old and, let me tell you, Excedrin Migraine is a joke. If someone tells you that it works for their migraines, then THEY DON'T HAVE MIGRAINES....they have a headache....big difference.
Yes, CH is more intense than migraines. The pain level is MUCH greater, but migraines last for days, even weeks without interval relief. Please consider this when you make comments about migraine sufferers. To me, what makes the migraines so bad is that I throw up with them and can't stop. CH doesn't make me vomit. To me, it's a 'toss in the air' as to whether I'd choose CH or a migraine while throwing up...you feel like your whole head is going to blow off your shoulders.
Excedrin Migraine......what a joke....
Peace,
