Hi Kat!

Wish I could say the same about Nurtec, it did not help me. That's great it is saving you! My neurology group is trying lots of medications but it's a really tough go for me. Right now I am back to Ubrevly and starting Aimovig injection for my prevention. I was taking Emgality for prevention. They want me to start a neuromodulating device also. Yikes!
Never had migraines until I hit my head in 2019. It is quite debilitating for me.

I am so sorry. I’ve had migraines my whole life. They have gotten progressively worse and I now get migraine associated vertigo. I also developed involuntary movements and FMD seizures. The doctors think it is related to my fibromyalgia and migraines. Since I began neurtec I have been able to walk again. Mind you I am only 45 and this all hit suddenly.
I have heard that Botox is very helpful as well. That is some that I have inquired about since I get facial movements from the migraines.
Best of luck to you,
Kat

No migraine medicine has ever worked for me. I have what they call New Daily Persistent Headache which I have had for 3 yr/9 mos, all day/every day. I also have migraines with aura but they are not classic migraines. I see neurologist tomorrow. Hoping he has new ideas for this debilitating life I lead. Sorry for everyone.
