Has Anyone Had Worsening Migraines For The First Week After Aimovig Inj. Before Feeling Better?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Every month when I take my Aimovig inj for the first week it seems that I have terrible migraines and then I'm better. Anyone else!? And yes... barometric/environmental systems reek havoc on my headaches also. When
weather is nice, not too hot, not too humid, just right I feel pretty good. But I also can tell way beforehand when rain is coming, or heat w/humidity,etc. too cold 🥶❄️, etc. I have Fibromyalgia too. The two seem to go hand in hand unfortunately!

When I first started using Aimovig I had that type of reaction to the medication. It was like after the fourth or fifth injection the migraines did become easier to manage month to month. Just as you, barometer changes are a big deal and when weather changes take place like cloudy issues (rain/thunderstorms) I am toast, need to go hide out for awhile with my migraine kit.

I do fully understand the migraine situation and how they can be trouble to work through as I experience migraines due to a brain surgery. Take care my friend.

What are the Aimovig side effects? I don’t think I’ve had any!

I was initially on Aimovig. But the new doc switched me to Emgality. I looked up the side effects on both. Turns out Aimovig has serious side effects and Emgality does not

Yes! I was surprised that I had migraines right after the injection! Then OK for the month👍
