My daily migraines disappeared after I went totally off anything
with caffeine in it.  Turns out that I am sensitive to caffeine and
my system can't tolerate it.  Do you drink coffee?  Tea?  Soft
drinks?  If that is the cause of your headaches then it may take a
couple of weeks to get all the caffeine out of your system.
