I’m happy to hear that you found something that works for you! I’ve been wanting to try Botox for my migraines to see if it will help. I’ve had imitrex for a while but it doesn’t always work. I’ve also taken naratriptan(same family as imitrex) I’ve had them since I was about 10 or so and I’m 39 now so I’ve been dealing with them a long them and I’ve tried just about every medication under the sun to help my migraines. They get unbearable sometimes. Migraines really effect my life negatively and I really need to find something that helps in the long term

Unfortunately Botox hasn’t continued to be an effective preventative. Imitrex still helps but I also use a gel pac and caffeine most mornings.
It’s totally trial and error in finding relief for those of us who have had migraines for decades.
I also think migraine headaches can change over time. Mine have changes but they never go away.
