I know this is a late response; however, I wanted to chime in just in case you're still suffering. I have suffered from migraine headaches since I was 9 years old and also had a seizure postpartum. Prior to getting pregnant my neurologist put me on Verapamil. It is a calcium channel blocker which has worked wonders. It is a preventative that I take once daily. I went from having 6 auras a week to maybe 1 full blown migraine once every other month. Relpax is a great medication for treating a migraine once it comes, but it is rather expensive. The Verapamil lowers your blood pressure, which is one reason my signs for the seizure went unnoticed. I hope this helps you some! Migraines are horrible.
