Question: ...go out to clubs or bars, the next day I have the worst headache...
Answer:
Dear Yadira,
It looks like you have discovered a trigger for your headaches. If migraine-specific therapies work (ie, "triptans") for your headaches then you might consider taking a dose pre-emptively before going out to a club, etc.. Check with your regular doctor on this.
