I live with 24/7 migraine ever since stage IV cancer treatments nearly 9 years ago.
NOTHING works! I get Botox injections every 3 months and that brings my pain level down to about a 8 but I still have several days of 10.
Prescriptions such as Quilipta, Nurtec, Ubrelvy help but my copayment is $400.00 for 9 pills so it’s not worth the money for 9 good days per month. Sumatriptan works and is affordable but you can’t take it after you reach 60 years old and I’m 63.
I’m on several medications to help calm my neck jaw and headache…no narcotics, I’m not interested nor do they work!
You really need to see a specialist so that you can be prescribed the correct medication and over the counter supplements.
Migraines can be linked to diarrhea and constipation and magnesium can help but you need to know which magnesium because one helps diarrhea while the other helps constipation so you need the correct one!
My wife suffers from migraines as well and she is prescribed Sumatriptan which works wonders for her but she’s not 60 yet. She also uses Excederin for migraine which sometimes helps her.
I use Ondansatron to curb the nausea which accompanies migraine.
Wishing you the best,
Jody
