So, all in all it seems that there is no general consensus. Each person has different reactions to different strains. I have gathered a quick and dirty line up of all the responses in this post as well as any others I found on Migraines on this site. My wrap up is at the end if you want to skip to it.

General

These are strains with no names. Where a member suggested a species over a particular culture (or brand name)

A negative means that the member stated to stay away from the species and a plus, well it means it was suggested.

Sativas: - - - +++++++
Indicas: - - ++++++
Hybrids: ++ ( there was a note to be careful)

MADE THEM FEEL WORSE: a-z order

This is fun. Here are some strains that members suggested that people avoid. However, if you read further …others suggested these strains.

**All names here were mentioned at least once. I added a ‘+’ symbol for each additional mention of a strain.

--------------------------------------------------

Diesels+
Purps+
Snowcaps
Train Wrecks

YAY!!! Suggestions: a-z order

Here we go … the suggestions. As you can see, some of these were mentioned above. I did not negate them because of that, I listed them as mentioned.

If a general strain was mentioned I listed it alphabetically. So OG Kush falls after OG as a general suggestion. But Kush is ALSO a general strain suggestion.

Like above, these have a ‘+’ symbol for each additional mention of a particular strain. Also if a strain has a * in front of it; it means the member was especially enthusiastic.

------------------------------------------------

AFWRECK

Bubbas

Chemdog (91)

DJ Shorts Blueberry

G-d's Gift+

Grapefruit.

Green Crack*

Blue Dream

Grand Daddy purp ++

JackFflash

Jack Herer +

Headband +

Masters

OG Strains +

OG KUSH

OG Herojuana

Kushs

LA Confidential *

NYC Diesel

Purple Kush

Platinums

Platinum Bubba*

Platinum Sour D

Skywalker OG

Snocap

Super Silver Haze

Trainwreck

Wallawalla Hussein

One thing that kept popping up in the responses was the issue of Vaping. Not one person said don’t vape . This was an agreement by all who mentioned it. At one point it was a doctor recommend. Edibles were also mentioned positively. The only drawback being wait time. And when you hurt, wait time is a drag.
-------------------

Whats the wrap up? Well ~ It seems you have to try it and see. I am leaning toward trying ONLY the ones that have a plus sign next to them The more they have…the first in line they are. Also, I bought a vaporizer.

So, The contenders are:

Grand Daddy purp ++
OG Strains +
OG Kush (it has OG and Kush both suggested generally)
Jack Herer +
Headband +
G-d’s Gift +

Anecdotally, we have had GREAT success with Honey infused with Sour Diesel. Does it get rid of the pain? Dunno~ but for my wife, it knocks her out. Sleepy time. And sleep= no headache. Yay sleep.

* not sure what this smiley has to do with this...but I could not turn down a free Hebrew Smiley!
