Chronic Migraine

I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2002 and started having migraine symptoms. Earlier this year my neuro prescribed qulipta which has cut my migraines in half. Instead of migraines on a daily basis I have between 10-15 which are manageable with an otc migraine medication. I also use triptans for the ones that don’t respond well to the otc med. In the past my migraine would keep me in bed for 2-3 days along with nausea and vomiting. It was awful. I hope this helps someone.
