Migraines and aneurysms

I was diagnosed with a brain anuerysm a year ago in the right internal carotid artery, 5.6 cm.

I had some bad headaches before I was diagnosed but nothing like the debilitating migraines that i am having now. The annie was filled with "glue" in my brain last June and is "sticking" together right now. But, the migraines are gaining strength and frequency.

I'm on verapamil and maxalt, still occuring too often. What else works??
