@benchi300 I can't edit my post from yesterday, but I made a mistake about Emgality--it was prescribed for MIGRAINE prevention and is good at that! However it did not impact my nocturnal headaches. I take Ajovy now for prevention of Migraines. Emgality (for me) was more effective than Ajovy at preventing headaches and for improving my color vision, visual acuity, and reducing my blinding persisting "afterimages." Both skin health and hair health improved dramatically after several months on Emgality. And Egality reduced severity of prodromal early symptoms (nerve/muscle twitches, scotoma, numbness).

@taterjoy - I also have had a long term problem with Hypnic Headaches…medication was hit or miss… Fiorcet and other things ….i have recently completed my second round of 31 botox injections into my head and it’s working!!! i’m told that by third round it really kicks in…well my second round feels like it kicked in!!!! I have also had a fabulous procedure for my trigeminal nerve pain called Scrambler Technique…also known as Calmare Therapy…i’m sure my brain is pretty fried by now!!!
