No tips that involve being able to do much of anything, I'm afraid - just the standard dark room, cool pack/ice on the head, maybe a fan, no music/sound, don't try reading, etc. I mean, I've used over the counter migraine medication to varying success (sometimes works, sometimes it works to the extent that if I don't try to walk, I'm okay, but if I walk every step causes a wave of pain in my head), never had migraines in enough frequency or severity to go to a doctor/check out painkillers, but it sounds like you are at another level with yours. I'm sorry. Headaches/specifically migraines are awful.

I don't think you are female but if you are, have you checked whether they might be hormone-related?
