Dizziness with migraine?
I am in the stage where they are trying to find a med that will help with my migraines which unknowingly I had all my life. Qulipta did nothing. I had two Emgality injections which were samples from the office.It started to help but I cannot afford the $700 cost, even with insurance helping. Now I am trying to qualify for the Botox. Has anyone exfperienced dizzyness from migraine or lack of treatment?
Hi
Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. It's awful how expensive some of these life changing medications are.
Dizziness can certainly be part of the migraine process for some of us. We have some resources on dizziness here; https://migraine.com/search?s=dizziness.
Botox has been a game changer for me and many others. I can tell you it can take three, four maybe more rounds of injections before we notice improvement. You can read more about Botox here; https://migraine.com/search?s=dizziness
As difficult as it is, please don't lose hope. There are over 100 medications, supplements, devices, complementary therapies and lifestyle modifications that can be used to manage migraine disease and most of us are on a combination of these, I sure am!

I'm sure others will be along shortly to share their experiences with you. In the meantime I'm sending you wishes for a low pain day, Nancy Harris Bonk, Patient Leader/Moderator (team member)
