Hey guys so as the title say i'm looking for the best strains for migraines. I have chronic migraines and I have had them my whole life (i'm 25) I get between 4 and 7 migraines a week and the doctors are yet to find a medication that helps prevent them, so I was hoping that maybe there was a specific strain that would help. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks guys.

High thc and cbd should be very helpful, to relax and control vaso spasms and regulate blood flow which characterizes a migraine

Might try making hash pills or similar to take daily, a low dose will be enough to alleviate symptoms,at least a helpful preventative, if you didn't want to be high all day.. if you have severe reoccurring migraines it might be a healthy alternative to daily prescriptions

Some migraine medicines turn your blood green.....kinda eerie who wants that

Try shrooms... my dad gets cluster headaches. Weed does help him but for him and many others shrooms are all that really gets rid of them

I too have suffered from migraines all my life and most prescription medications did not work for me. However, a couple years ago my pain management doctor prescribed Frova for migraines and it worked really well. I no longer take that and am trying maryjane. I have found for me Death Star works wonders on my migraines. I have vaped it and used it in edibles and capsules with a coconut extraction and it works great for me. I have tried vaping other strains and some of them made my migraines worse. You might have to keep trying different strains until you find one that works. I have found strains that are indica or indica dominant hybrids work best as well.

I have a couple migraines per month more or less, each migraine lasts up to 4 days.
When migraine is full force blue dream has helped me the most.
I highly advise anyone with migraines to keep some blue dream on hand. I kept reading people that swear by it, so i had a migraine, and it was at a club near me, so i got some, and i will never be with out it.
I have tried many strains, jack herrer worked ok for awhile , Girl Scout cookies helped with nausea a bit.
I have added tinctures to my arsenal , and a couple drops every half hour seems to be good for me, Im gonna try some cbd strains and tinctures on the next migraine to see how that goes.

Kind of late to the game here but I concur, Blue Dream works great. I've had 3 migraines in the last couple weeks and Blue Dream greatly improved one and completely stopped the other 2.

For me it's been green crack and sugar jack. Sativas basically. They've certainly helped but only one quick hit and back on the bed with a cold towel.
