Exactly.

I run or cycle daily and do small triathlons / half marathons in the summer. I’m mostly vegetarian. I weigh 155 lbs and I’m 5’11”. I sleep fine.

I get random severe migraines 2-3 times a year.

I discovered sumatriptan. It stops the migraine almost instantly when i sense one coming on (my vision starts to “fuzz out”).

Before this I would lose a day recovering in a dark room lying down. I was scared whenever I backpacked or went on long trips that I would have a migraine at the wrong time. Sumatriptan freed me from this.

I’m glad OP found a cure that works for them but everyone is different.
