Are you working with a migraine specialist? We can send you a list of doctors who have been especially trained in migraine in your area if you are looking. We do encourage folks who are living with chronic migraine to be followed by a specialist as migraine is a complex neurological condition. If you are interested in talking about treatment regimens we can do that too. There are a lot of new kinds of approaches these days. I'm not sure if you've heard of the class of preventative and rescue drugs called CGRPs but they have helped a lot of people. There is also Botox (a preventative injectable drug) and triptans (a class of rescue medications) that might be worth exploring if you haven't already tried them. Happy to send you information on any of these if you'd like. Very glad you reached out and to have you as a part of our community. Warmly, Holly (migraine.com team).

I have been living with chronic daily migraine for over 50 years. My migraine started when I was 7 years old. You are not alone and this community is a great support and help to me.

Migraines started at 9 years old, 63 now (54 years), every day since age 21 for 32 years.
