The purpose of this study is to evaluate blood levels of several proteins that may be
altered in the inflammation associated with migraine headaches. These blood levels will be
evaluated in individuals during an acute migraine attack and compared to their levels when
pain free. The investigators study hypothesis is that the pro inflammatory proteins in the
blood will be greater than the levels of these proteins when evaluated during a pain free
period.
