    I hate my migraines. I am going down the rabbit hole and getting so sick of them. 20 plus years of this crap. I just feel like jumping off a bridge with some migraines. I have had enough. 25 per month. 1/2 of my life spent in bed. Finally got approved for Botox.

      Hi. I've had them since age 7. By 22 I was getting a minimum of 20 per month. 15 days so severe that I had/have to be in forced isolation .. In bed.. Closed off from the world. Total agony , isolation , severe vomiting lasting 2 to 4 days repeating 4 to 5 times per month. I'm now 50 and there's no letting up. Botox did not help me however I sincerely hope it helped you. Can I ask how old you are?

      @@mobilekaos 56 yrs old. Recently my migraines have gotten a lot worse and now I am back to being a Guinea pig with drugs again. DO NOT try Topamax. It is honestly a living nightmare. I lost 15 lbs on this drug in two weeks. The side fx were horrendous. I am just trying to cope on a daily basis.

      @@mobilekaos have you tried Maxalt? This is the only drug that works! And….I do not feel
      like a burden to my family. God no! I can manage this on my own. It’s nice to have compassionate ppl around you though. My husband is amazing a is quite compassionate. He has my medication ready for me and makes sure I am keeping hydrated by whatever means. He’s pretty good at it.

      @licks n kicks hi! I did topamax 10 years ago. No benefit no side effects. Good to hear you've got some good support. Maxalt & imitrex both work ok if I get to it early enough but that is seldom the case. Usually its too late. I have access to pretty much any meds but all of them only do so much. In a weird kinda way it feels good to connect.
