Brew,
I'm very sorry to hear that you're having what sounds like a real break-out w/ your HA's. Been there, done that. My migraines have mostly subsided over the years, but Midrin is my friend when they do reappear.
You're getting plenty of good medical advice from others, but I'll add one bit of folk wisdom that's served me well, FWIW. Keep several damp washcloths in the freezer and, when the pain hits, take one out and place it directly over your eyes. Your eyes should be closed, but let the rag thaw in direct contact with your eyelids. This sometimes seems to help me more than meds, though it sounds like you've stepped up to a whole 'nother level. In any case, having that coolness begin to radiate through your skull can give you something more pleasant to focus on for awhile.
Hang in there.
