Thanks alot Ma'am for investigating the disease. It appears at forehead, eyes, back of neck and sometimes in the middle of head. It lasts for 3 to 4 hours with medicine and I used to take panadol extra, synflez, ponston,Nims for relief thrice a day. Physical condition is normal, no B.P issue, family history is not good as my grandfather had the same problem from his teenage till end.

Ma'am I have tried Sumatriptan but it doesn't work, infact it creates a kind of solid burden at head and neck and doesn't feel comfortable at all.
Can you please clarify this negative impact of sumatriptan.
I have also tried newly introduced Synflex-M but it worked the same way like Sumatriptan.
Do you advise some other drug, therapy, herb etc other than your recommended measures in last response.

Thanks Ma'am for your response.
It starts usually at 11am but not having direct relation with time because sometimes it already triggered when I woke up in the morning and sometimes it triggers in afternoon, evening or at night as well.
Its also having direct relation with food, like whenever I take egg yolk it triggers immediately or whenever I use food with high quantity of black pepper etc.
Medicines I'm using for temporary relief but fed up of extensive intake are panadol extra (2tablets), Panadol Extra+Synflex, Panadol Extra/Synflex+Nims, Ponston Fotre+Panal etc.
As far as its relation with stress, its directly linked with stress as well.
