I have been smoking weed for about five years now. These past few months after I smoke I have been getting terrible migraines where I can't function; they've even gotten to the point where I go blind for a while. I do not have these headaches when I am sober. The only cure for me to enjoy my high is to take a painkiller like Vicodin or Oxys approx 30-45minutes before then I can get high with no headache. I have tried drinking HUGE amounts of water before, during, and after smoking to no cure. I have also eaten sweets because I have heard this can be related to low blood-sugar levels. Once I've gotten these headaches they are very hard to get rid of, I have found that a large source of caffeine i.e. monster or coffee helps but does not solve it. It isn't the type of weed I am smoking I have experimented with indoor,outdoor,local,dispensary, any type of weed. I'm not smoking seeds or stems or ash. I get headaches with bongs, blunts, vapes, pipes, joints, everything. I have not tried eating edibles yet to see if I get the same problem. Currently I am just taking a break from smoking so far its been one week. Maybe it's a tolerance issue? I cannot find anything useful online and the few scarce pieces of information I find have been useless. THIS SUCKS I love blazing and am sad that it pains me so much to smoke. I would love to find a cure to this or even an explanation of why this is happening to me :cry: . So if anyone has any ideas I would love to here them, thanks.
 
I would suggest a healthy diet and exercise if you haven't been living a very healthy lifestyle.
Personally I have found relief from migraines in the form of 5HT2A agonists such as mushrooms and LSD. A single trip provides 2-6 months of relief, which is 8-24 migraines I avoid.

I am a healthy person, in shape, and exercise regularly. That is a very interesting suggestion, is there anyway to get these 5HT2A agonists aside from taking LSD or shrooms? I mean I'd love to trip but maybe something more practical like a OTC drug?
 
None that I am aware of. Imitrex is a 5HT1B and 5HT1D agonist that is a non-psychoactive analog of DMT which you can be prescribed, however I never experienced any relief from it.
 
Get a prescription for amitryptaline or something like it. Don't take opiates for migraine/headaches it sucks and sometimes even makes things worse, even APAP is better...
