Hi guys! I've been struggling with getting effective treatment for my migraines for years and it's exhausting! Not being able to live a stable life and feeling like doctors don't want to help is frustrating

      @AyoFeels it can be such a long process. And everyone (including me) is evangelical about what works, which may do nothing for you. I found I had to take gaberpentin the wrong way (supposed to take 3 times a day to prevent migraines but became less and less effective and I had none when needed. Now I hord them and take them as I need).

      Have you seen a specialist? I'm really lucky that I live in a town with a migraine clinic. My GP just kept pushing nortriptiline, which just made me sleepy.

        @Squanky I have, I have like 3, but they've essentially given up at this point and it's annoying. I'm glad you've got a migraine clinic! I'm only 3 different medications that barely help anymore
