I've switched to regular ibuprofen for my migraines...your system can handle more of it than it can of tylenol - which is also in the excedrin! I have Vicodin on hand for when I get a really bad one (still about once a month), and since that also has tylenol in it, Ibuprofen is the safest thing to take along with it.
Migraines suck. I was in that denial mode for a long time. I still have a hard time taking a Vicodin when I get one. I feel almost guilty for not being able to just suck it up and deal with the pain, and I usually wait until it's become unbearable. :/
