migraines - what to do?

I had minor surgery a few weeks back (hernia) and a few days afterwards started getting crazy migraine headaches.

My doctor thinks its codeine withdrawl from stopping the Tylenol 3's I was taking after surgery and my surgeon thinks its stress related. They are occuring every night (late) in the same place (right temple) and last a few hours. They are very debilitating and during the day I have a constant minor headache. Until this all started, I never usually even get headaches so I am a bit worried why now right after I had surgery.

My doc prescribed Amerge (they sorta work but cost $18/pill). What other tips or remedies are out there to help out?
