This medication worked for me for ten years at 125 mgs. I still had migraines, but I didn’t spend weeks upon weeks in bed, in the dark, praying for my death. When it stopped working, I was heartbroken, but hopefully there will be other answers for me in the coming months.
Having worked for several professional athletes, one of whom did return early due to migraines and concussions, I know this is a serious issue. In fact, it’s one I experience myself.
This article infuriated me. I know how I was treated as a child with pain and it wasn’t very different, but I feel like the practices have become worse as an adult with pain, not better. You have to fight for everything, and that is unacceptable to me, but for anyone to denounce the pain of a child just plain rattles my cage!

There are some good idea in here, and some that I find baffling, but to each their own. I highly recommend having more than water on hand, as a great many people respond to caffeine. Also, keep some quality snacks on hand because many of us become ravenous just prior to or immediately after an attack.
