Is your neurologist aware of your general sensitivity to medications? You might want to talk to your pharmacist about potential medication interactions if you talk other medications too.

I am on my third month of Aimovig injections. If you have someone else give them to you the sting only lasts for a minute or so. I am taking the Aimovig in conjunction with cranial nerve block injections (they are not for the weak). The combination has brought my headaches down from 7-10 to 2-5 (in half). I still get eye pulling, brain fog, fuzzy vision and some balance issues. Yet, at half the headache level this seems much more manageable. My tumor is inoperable and not subject to radiation since it is in a vein and the risk of a bleed is too dangerous. So for now I am pleased to have some relief and hope to get back to having more quality of life.

Colleen, Thank you so much. Yes, my Neurologist is aware of my meds and so is my
pharmacist.
Blessings & Prayers, Pam
