Looking for Advice on Chronic Migraine Injections

I’m 22, my current migraine protocol includes Botox, Occipital nerve blocks, IV magnesium, Trokendi XR, Namenda, and Emgality. If the “injections” you’re referring to are CGRPs, then Emgality is the one that has helped me. I have also tried Amiovig but that ones didn’t work for me.

I had trigger point injections in my neck and shoulders and didn’t find much relief from that and now I do Botox, only had one round so far and haven’t felt much relief at all but I was told it may take up to 3 rounds to help With migraine. I also took every triptan but I needed them so much they started to give me rebound headaches so I had to get off of that and I now take nurtec as needed

I also get injections

My topamax is 500mg 2x daily ..

I'm older than that. But the nurtec migraine pill,botox, dry needling and cupping has helped me the most. I was on triptans forever and the migraines would last a week or longer. Sometimes I need toridol inj from neurologist, but I've been able to stay out of the e.r. for a while now

I have tried over 6 different medications, botox, acupuncture, breathing therapies, change in diet and exercise, supplements and more. The only things that have made a difference for me were a tems device called cefaly, naratriptan and prochlorperizine and ondansetron for nausea. As well as cbd can be incredibly helpful. My main issue was tmj from a concussion and since treatment mine have significantly decreased.

Hi im 22. Dont take injections but I've being taking topomax as a preventive and sumatriptan as an abortive. Dr changed topomax to 50mg and since that change i have not had any relief. Plus the side effects are; tingling in my fingers, more frequent headaches and loss of appetite. When I first started the medicine back in 2019 I had no problems. Hopefully I will be on a different preventive soon

I usually take aimovig but I cant take it right now cause im pregnant but thankfully my obgyn persribed me medicine for them

i don’t take injections but i do take imatrex pills and nasal as an emergency medication! they do come in an injection format but i haven’t needed it yet. when i have a bad migraine and i don’t have that near me i take 2 benadryl and 600mg of ibuprofen! it’s not perfect but it helps. i’m also on 2 preventative medications!
