Answer 2

Sometimes coffee can help a headache because the caffeine will stop the blood flow, other times it can make a headache worse, see if that helps and I would use organic coffee if possible.  Milk & chocolate & soda can make migraines worse, so try to not have those at during and maybe a week before. Milk is a big culprit for migraines, I don't drink milk anymore and have less headaches.
