I don’t think I have ever had a migraine and hardly ever have a headache BUT several of my family members suffer on a regular basis. I will pass on this info Thanks!
Hi Phil - I've had very similar issues like you're describing. For migranes, I've used Maxalt. For regular headaches, the only thing I've found to work is Excederine with acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine. However, I'm not able to sleep after taking anything with caffeine in it. Something interesting I've experienced over the past two months though....I went into my doctor and requested a sleep study. They were able to set me up with equipment to do that in my own home. They determined I had a very slight case of sleep apnea and had me try using a CPAP device on a trial basis. Since using that device, I've experienced ZERO headaches of any kind. This was totally unexpected since I didn't relate the headaches to anything sleep related. I guess I wasn't getting enough air while sleeping and it was effecting me throughout the entire day. See if your doctor is open to letting you try a CPAP device for a while too. Good luck and best wishes!
I just found something the last couple weeks I wanted to pass along, I used to wake up with a headache of some kind each morning. I was doing some research and came across Linen(flax) fabric has a high frequency of 5000, and so does wool, but you can't combine otherwise they cancel each other out. The study was done 2003. Anyway, I decide to buy enough 100% linen to make a pillow case to experiment. The only change I did was the pillow case. No headache in the morning!!!! Figure it had to be a fluke so gave it a week, no headaches. I'm pleasantly surprised and will do more research. I hope my streak continues of no morning headaches. Wanted to share to see if anyone wanted to experiment.

I have migraines, too, night as well. So, thanks for the tip. I will certainly try it.
