When(ever) I quit coffee, I got strong migraines after a day or so. However, they subside and go away after a few more days.

I wouldn’t claim it works the same way for everyone, but the difference between coffee being a treatment for migraines and migraines being a symptom of coffee withdrawal may be indistinguishable in immediate term.

Ah yes. I do get those, but also just get migraines (as well as hypnic headaches) which caffeine is a wonder at ameliorating.

I quit caffeine for about 2 years and the headaches never subsided (except the caffeine withdrawal ones of course).

They are just a fact of my life I’m afraid.

As much as I’d like to get off of caffeine I am very grateful to have is as a remedy.
