3 Day Migraine and ADHD: Is There a Connection?

I’m having a 3 day migraine and I’m going to have to go to the hospital to get rid of it because my aborters aren’t putting a dent in it. I think I’ve noticed getting these really persistent migraines when my adhd is particularly bad boredom wise, is this just me?

IV fluids always help my migraines bc I don't absorb the water I drink, but I get them at my house not the hospital (through a port)

At times I deal with a week long of a migraine, I have to literally shut off tv pretty much everything because I get sensitive to light can't keep my eyes open from the pain.. nothing works for me at all. Any suggestions

the only thing that can really do anything with the drug resistant ones is to take a hot bath with the lights off and relaxing music/show.

I thought I was alone! The worse my ADHD gets, the more likely and more servere my migraines become! That's why I keep so many fidgets around, that way I can try to hold the ADHD at bay so it's one less trigger to worry about.
