I take Aleve and sometimes I even need to take lorazepam. I also recently found that liquid IV helps.

How Many Of You That Suffer From Chronic Headaches Pain Wish You Could "never Wake Up"?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

This is a health study to see how many of us are so depressed and anxious that our constant thoughts are wishing we weren't alive any longer. Why is this is thought pattern an ignored part of our mental health? Suicide is addressed, but not the wish to "never wake up". How prevalent is this condition?

Does Anyone Have To Take Imetrex On A Daily Basis?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am to the point that I am having to take Imetrex daily just to function. I have tried to go without it but the most I can go is three days before I have to finally give in and take it. I am concerned as to what it may be doing to my heart. I take the "Reddy" brand through CVS which does not seem to work as well as the name brand. Also, each time I take an Imetrex I have to chase it with two Tylenol or Advil.

A MyMigraineTeam Member

Always have food in your stomach is a good start. Famotidine is a stomach acid controller you might have to take with it. I take Omeprazole every day to protect my stomach from Aleve.

Some people have luck with gabapentin; personally, I hate the way it makes me feel. I have had some success with Botox, CGRPs (e.g. Emgality), and with a Cefaly, which is a neuro-stimulator, and THC… read more
