hmmm. i have to add a reply to read so, i will say hello, my name is kerry. diagnosed with HM six months ago. prior to that was diagnosed with simply complex migraine w/aura or basilar migraine. i'm currently taking verapamil which helps a great deal, 400mg B2, and 600-800mg of magnesium citrate solution. my attacks are much quieter now but still come about 9 days out of 10. i'm always seeking new information.

Hi Kerry, Thanks for sharing your story. It looks like you were the first one to post in this particular forum, but you may hear from others (including our moderators).....sometimes it takes an initial post to get the discussion going!
