a month long migraine! oh heavens! I had one that lasted 4 days, that was my longest and more than long enough for me.ELB wrote:Back to drifting: my wife suffers from migraines a lot. Zomig nasal inhaler works -- sometimes -- to relieve it, the Zomig pills don't. Worth trying the pills, but the route of delivery seems to matter. Nasal works much faster, probably doesn't last as long.
She did Botox injections for prevention of migraine, but as far as I could tell it didn't help much. She is just starting to try Depakote now as a daily migraine preventative. She has had it in the past as a rescue med to stop some migraines that lasted over a month (!), and it worked well for that.
Good luck to anyone who has to deal with migraines.
the Zomig does have an injectable that is suppose to be even faster and better than the nasal, I'm afraid to ask how much those are.
plus I'm slightly needle phobic.
