Iām looking to relocate for retirement (I thought AZ?)

I can't believe how much better I feel now that the temperature has dropped. There also does not seem to be the big fluctuations in the temperature, humidity and barometric pressure. The thing that is still messing with my head is precipitation. I know the day before it's going to rain, then it rains and then it takes a day to feel better. That's three days out of my life. Weather migraines are really bad, anybody else have them? In sure lots of us do. Anyone know how to avoid or copeā¦ read more
Indeed. The migraine is bad enuf but the post migraine fatigue can last days for me. Drag!
Good afternoon š. Has anyone tried an āice hatā of sorts? It was just mentioned to me. Is it worth the purchase? Also, what about migraine PT? I just learned of this, too. Iām into the 10th year of a chronic migraine and it is unbearableā¦ š. Thank you for potential FYI and have a great day ~ š¤

I took low-dose Neurontin (100 mg) at night for about 20 years for nerve pain not related to migraine. I had infrequent migraines before and during those years with neurontin

About a year after stopping the Neurontin, my migraines went from my having 1-4 short episodes a YEAR to having 5 to 15 of migraine days a MONTH. Itās now been 2-3 years of severe chronic migraines.
I read an article about Neurontin recently as a preventative forā¦ read more

Hi all
Am new to migraines. Am 42 years old and 3 months ago had first one. I thought I had heart attack. But things didnāt add up cause I didnāt had chest pain nor arm pain. Just slurred speech
Luckily I had morphine left over from kidney stone I had month before migraine attack. But morphine didnāt work. Had to take Advil and Tylenol too. Than I fall a sleep and when I woke up I was just tired but head was fine.
I went to fam doc for something else and at the end I mentioned headache andā¦ read more

What do you guys know about triptan overuse headaches?
I just learned of them from a nurse at my neurologistās office. This had never been mentioned before by my neurologist and he prescribes me 30 rizatriptans per month and 7 frovatriptans per month, which covers my 20 migraines (if they decide to work). However, I had no idea that by taking the prescribed medication as directed, I could actually be causing more migraines. But if I donāt take them, Iām in excruciating pain and amā¦ read more

Bob weāve heard it. We either believe you or donāt. Stop peddling yourself on this site please.

Thanks, I knew there was something different. It is freaky to lose your sight during these episodes. Sort of a āgeez, whatās next??ā.
