Hey Kristi! My history with migraines have been pretty intense. A few years ago I found out that I have lesions in my brain from migraines. I have tried a lot of medicines that haven’t worked. Currently I am Trokendi xr 200 mg for preventive migranes. I have started Botox in January for my migraine and that really helps ! I used to have to take Ubervly, however that stopped working . I would get migraine everyday for months last year, which was really scary . They would cause auros . Medicines at that point felt like a hole was burning through my stomach . My jaw would shake; I couldn’t do much . What have you done that’s been helpful ? Are you looking to try something else ?
