New migraine medicine and Yoga?

So the indomethacine isn't working and now my neurologist is switching me to Depakote and suggests I start yoga.  I think he thinks I need to laugh more.  He hasn't seen me to yoga before, but every time I've tried it, I just can't get past the silly names they have for each of the poses.  It is not relaxing, it just hurts and makes me giggle.  But, I did say I would try anything to get rid of the headaches so here goes nothing.  My daughter loves yoga and we have a wii fit program that has yoga on it.  I'm going to have to program the DVR to tape a few yoga programs and give it a try.  What's the worst thing that could happen?  Other than laugh myself to death :)

I think you need a new doctor. Just sayin..... You shouldn't have to put up with pain - at all.
Have you considered the possibility that your headaches are food related? (I have a SIL who had debilitating migraines, and she cut out milk products and no longer has headaches... sometimes it's allergy related...) Praying for some relief for you!
