Long Time Migraine Sufferer

I was very young when I had my first migraine. I think I got them from my mother - meaning, she gets them and so do I. I have used most medications, tried magnesium, cutting out chocolate, feverfew, mangosteen, etc. Imitrex seems to work the best for me. I get 10-15 migrianes per month. Our insurance just cut me to 3 tablets per month and I am looking for ways to deal with this.

What is my migraine experience now?

I was thrilled to find this site and hope to make friends and share ideas to help each other. I was also glad to find many professionals here too. I am now in my early 50s and hope a cure for migraine is found one day. My ex never had a headache in her life and had no idea what it was like. Only one of my three children gets migraines but they are not very one thank goodness.

Thanks,

Peter Whittam
