Stop My Headache Now!

Migraine ? I get a couple migraines a month. They are always on my left side and hurt like hell. I usually get them in the evening so I can just go to bed and when I wake up they are gone only I have a lot of pressure on my right side - not pain, just pressure that usually goes away after mid-day. I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem and if they have any tips on how to make it feel better without having to go to sleep. And Excedrin Migraine, it says to only take two tablets in a 24 hour period, can you take three if two just does not work?

What is a good migraine medication that is comparable to Topamax, without the side effects? I had been taking Topamax for migraines.

For those of you that don't know, Topamax is used to prevent migraines, not to help with the pain. If anyone has personal experience I would prefer your answer. I don't want answers like imitrex, maxalt, zomig, as these are to treat the pain after you have gotten a migraine. I want an answer for a med to prevent the migraines. Thanks in advance.

How do I locate the diagnosis code for migraine headache? The diagnosis code for headache is 784.0 and the diagnosis code for migraine is 346.X (X depends on specifics of the migraine, but this diagnosis needs a 4th digit).

I would think there would be a combined code, but this is the only diagnosis code I am questioning in my work book. Please help if you know. Thank you!
