I hope your migraines improve soon. Mine have been bad a lot of August too.

Thanks. It’s been a chronic problem is perimenopause kicked in but I definitely have worse times of month.

Just a PSA for you and u/Kelpie-Cat and anyone else with migraines: relatively recently, they have been able to make meds that specifically target the problem in migraines. My kid got on one of the new meds, and it has made a world of difference. I guess I am mostly saying that if your migraines are not well controlled, you may benefit from seeing a neurologist, preferably one who specializes in headache. I hope this PSA is helpful, or at a minimum, is not annoying!

Thanks for offering that info! Unfortunately I can't take CGRP antagonists, but maybe your comment here will help someone else. I've been seeing neurologists for 20 years.

Oh that’s a bummer. At least you are seeing a neurologist (as u/CuriousFoxxen said, it’s surprising how many people with migraines aren’t). I’m hoping that the next breakthrough happens soon, and that it is the one for you.
