Tara you poor girl! If I'd had migraines in high school plus IBS, I don't know what I would have done! Bad enough to have had that in college. But maybe it's better since you can be at home with your mom!
I'm usually ok with Aleve, but not Advil (don't ask why, you'd think they'd both upset me!). Definitely eat something first though! Are you on prescription naproxen? I had that for a while for to break the cycle of migraines. Have you got anything to prevent migraines (usually a low dose of a tricyclic anti-depressant, like Pamelor)? What about triptans like Imitrex, Maxalt, Zomig for when you actually get a headache? Seems to me like the goal would be to get rid of the migraine, not only treat the symptom. It's good that you're seeing a neurologist, but maybe you'd like to talk to him/her about other treatment options. You shouldn't have to live with so much pain!
