Personally, I haven't found anything that prevents my migraines. I can usually delay the start, sometimes for days, but it always eventually comes on. If feverfew works for you, you might also try aspirins or willowbark(as substitutes). Not panadol, though.
Best cure, when the migraine does strike?
Lots of quiet,a darkroom and warmth. I often spend time in a relatively cool sauna (around 180 Fahrenheit) for about 1/2 an hour, coolish shower for five minutes (or a dip in the swimming pool and a couple of lengths) and back to the sauna (at something over 200 F) for about 15 minutes. Finish with a cold shower (5 minutes)and a long rest in a dark room.
No, it doesn't cure, but it sure makes it a lot easier to manage.
