Chronicmigraine-and-fasting. Advice?

I have chronic migraine, but recently, they have worsened. My head and neck hurt constantly, and the only time I feel relief is when I am asleep. This makes studying difficult, and the stress of not being able to focus triggers more migraines. I have an important competitive exam in April and worry about how fasting for Ramadan might affect my condition. Is it safe for me to fast? If so, how can I manage migraines during fasting? Please suggest medication timing, diet, or lifestyle changes that may help. Your advice would mean a lot.
