Same, too much caffeine and being dehydrated are a trigger, too many nights of not enough sleep as well. It's annoying they've gotten more frequent as I've gotten older.

The first time it happened a doctor recommended Excedrin (HAH!), fortunately I had already suspected caffeine so I skipped that advice and hammered water and laid in bed for a couple hours instead.

I avoid acetaminophen altogether. i had a terrible terrible morning because of it. I guess my liver wasn’t doing great which caused a migraine and I added acetaminophen to the mix. 3hs of incapacitating pain followed by 6hs of recovery:m. A wasted day.

Ibuprofen or naproxen for me. Caffeine is risky but present in my day to day, I just have to take double the water even if i know I’m just going to pee it out.

Any energy drink messes me up BAD
