I just had a bad weekend dealing with a migraine. But I thought I was just sick.? I have had these happen since I was about 16. I didn't know what it was until today when I was talking about it with someone at work. I noticed that it is triggered when I am working outside in the heat excerpting myself really hard with little or nothing to eat or drink previously. 

Fatty or unhealthy foods seem to help them along. All I do when it occurs is find a place to sleep. Usually it only happens for  half a day but this time it occurred for a few days. I never experienced it this bad. I ended up vomiting 2 days into it.

Any pointers to avoid this from happening? I found that when it happens if you try and drink a little water with some food and then sleep it off this helps for those attacks that go away after a while.
