Until you can get ahold of some meds, try some of these suggestions:

Hi Zany sorry to hear you are getting so well and truly beasted... where abouts are you at the moment?
If you need help with getting to see a doctor or with info for one let me know.
Have you ever tried O2? Its literally a lifesaver for me and I would never be without it. You can get quite small tanks which are extremely portable! Not quite as big as two 2L coke bottles end to end but about the same width.
Are you a member of OUCH UK at all? There has recently been a lot of talk there about using frovatriptan as an abortive. Its alot slower to start working than imigran (hence taking it BEFORE getting hit) but once its in your system it will give you up to 24 hours PF time.. not to be knocked! There are also Zolmitriptan nasal sprays (called Zomig on this site but I'm using UK names for you) which also have a very long half life but work quicker on a hit. Imigran is the shortest lasting triptan but sadly its the only one available so far in injectible form.
I hope this helps, please post and let us know how you are doing or IM me if you want any more help
Helen
