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!

Is There Hope?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was diagnosed with chronic migraines about 2 and a half months ago. I have tried 4 different preventives and 4 different onsets. Nothing is working for me. I might have to quit my job soon as all I can do most days is lay in bed. I finally saw a neurologist and am now on trazadone which is supposed to help with the depression/sleep and also work as a preventative. And he gave me ubrevely for an onset. I am starting to feel hopeless and everyday I wake up exhausted and defeated. When will

Amovig

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I recently had my 4th Craniotomy due to a TBI and skull fractures from an accident six years ago. I was given Amovig in October, but I had to wait until my craniotomy was done and to see how I was improving with my dizziness. I also have a condition called semicircular Canal dehiscence and had to have that repaired. So now I’m able to start the Amovig. But I’m kind of nervous because one of the side effects I have seen listed is dizziness. Has anyone had dizziness with this prescription? And… read more

Can People Share Their Experiences Of Taking Aimovig?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m having trouble getting my insurance to cover Emgality and my neuro says that Aimovig might be easier to get through for some reason. However, I’m rather concerned about the severe constipation side effect that has caused some patients to need surgery as that has been an issue I’ve had my whole life. How have you guys combatted that side effect? Any info you think would be useful would be much appreciated! TIA! 😊
