i lost vision, had slurred speech, words would not come out,arm was numb,etc. After one or two injections of Demerol or something that sounds like that,the migraine disappeared. Now that these meds are no longer prescribed, I have been prescribed the meds mentioned in this article,none of which has worked for me. among, them Amovig Nurtex, Qulipta, etc. I've got quarterly Botox injections for 3 yrs. They reduce the number of migraines I get but not the intensity of the pain when I get them Waste of time and money. All legit suggestions welcome.

That I won't be able to get it under control and will end up in the ER or hospital again.

gloria… at 86 years old I am able to word off some of my migraines by the use of and the trip changed, which were not available when I was working at those times I frequently had to go to the ER after vomiting continuously hour after hour. I no longer vomit. I do get nauseous but do not throw up any longer because the trip to a meal and sometimes sleeping on a triptan knowing that a headache is coming on will knock it out. I suggest trying to get the Vyepti Infusion, which is given once every three months. I also take Noratriptan 2.5 mg and can sometimes get relief before the headache becomes awful
I have read that Nurtec, another placebo trial medication taken daily has proven effective in trial tests but my insurance company would not approve it. It is an expensive medication and I cannot afford to buy it myself.
My migraines began at age 22. I can’t really travel because of the change in the barometric pressure. My neurologist tells me this is quite common. When there is a front coming in the weather, ( going to rain) I have to prepare for a headache, which is inevitable two days ahead of a weather change.
Popcorn is very bad for migraine sufferers. I do have problems with too much sugar. As I am older now, 86, as I mentioned, sugar has become more of a problem relating to my migraines. I cannot handle chocolate either. I hope this helps all to suffer. Gloria Fenton.
