My neurologist put me on 60 mg once a day for my weather migraines. She said I should try it for 2-4 weeks.

I just got an article in my inbox that spoke about using weighted blankets. I knew nothing about them.

Has anyone tried a weighted blanket to help with sleep or pain at night?

Here's a link to the article.

Hugs all around

They think I have vestibular migraines, but basically running a test taking the drug since nothing has been diagnosed for what's causing my vertigo.

New resident doctor...which is a doctor in training...decided to not allow me to take 50 Mg of Sumitriptan daily, even though it's been working for a long time without affecting my heart or anything. My blood pressure is slightly elevated, but not in danger zone. I have been losing weight intentionally...packed some on during covid, but not in too bad of a shape. They seem to think they are rebounds...but everything rebounds your body, including anything with caffeine, sugar, and much more… read more

Bright light is definitely a trigger and even when light wasn't the particular trigger when a migraine starts I often wear sunglasses indoors.

I wear sunglasses outside most of the time now too, ever since I had cataract… read more
