migraines du to neck tics..The neck muscles get so tight.
You would want to have that confirmed by a neurologist because tight neck muscle headaches are not usually migraine triggers.

A migraine is a neurological event, where the headache is usually on one side of the head, often focused behing one eyeball. Accompanying the migraine is some or all of the following: nausea, vomiting, sesitivity to light, sound and smells and being incapacitated.

Granted stress can be a contributing trigger in people with migraine, but if the problem is in the back of the neck, it well might be pain assiciated with the trapezius muscle.

Have you discussed this type of headache with your doctor?
