I have suffered with migraines for years but now each month I have a severe migraine that lasts a week each time. I have to leave work and end up in hospital.

Sumatriptan do nothing. The pain starts in the right temple pulsating like something hatching in my head. 2 days later moves to forehead then a day later moves to right temple and lasts two days. The pain is so bad sometimes I question the point of being alive if this is my life. I need help.

    I have the same type of symptoms with migraine as you mention. I am so close to going to A & E each time as the pain is unbearable. Do they stop the pain at the hospital?
