Living with Chronic Migraine: My Story

I’ve suffered from chronic migraine for almost 5 years! Which for me looks like about 20 days per month we’re in in a moderate level of pain all the time. Anyone else experience this?

Yea I used to get them almost every single day. I tried everything. Botox unfortunately didn’t work for me. I’ve been on Topomax every night for a long night and I’m doing the Emgality injections once a month now and it is absolutely life changing. And I have the Rizatriptan and Firocet for breakthrough migraines.

In 2020 I had 24/7 migraines. I've had migraines since childhood, but in recent years it has gotten significantly worse. I started botox almost a year ago and have been blown away with how much it's helped. I'm down to 1 or 2 migraines a week, compared to nonstop. Sumatriptan has also helped
