ELETRIPTAN HYDROBROMIDE vs SUMATRIPTAN

This is the longest I’ve gone without a migraine attack in over a decade. I feel like I’ve gotten my life back. For context: been dealing with migraines for close to 30 years, but they became chronic in December/January. I had previously been on Rizatriptan and Eletriptan, but started experiencing

Hey folks, Six weeks ago, I underwent "migraine surgery," by Dr. Day at the Pacific Sound Plastic Surgery. It was the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me, and I wanted to share my experience in case there are others like me out there. **My headaches** I'm 39M, and I've had a constant hea

On day 4 of a barometric pressure migraine, laying in bed still feeling like garbage after getting shots of Toradol and phenergan today.. and I just want to take my eletriptan😭

I (22f) went to the mayo clinic today in scottsdale to see a headache specialist neurologist and it was the WORST experience ever. For context, I’ve had average 22 migraines a month for the past 3 years. When they started in 2019, I would get average like 3 a month. They are debilitating, I’m on Qul

I’ve had chronic migraine for 6 months, been treating it with meds and lifestyle changes for 3 months. When I start to feel my headache progress, I’ll take a triptan (rizatriptan, eletriptan, or ubrelvy) but it’s so hard to say confidently if it does anything. Whether or not my migraine gets worse,

Like many of you, I suffer from migraines on a regular basis. First it was once a month, then twice a month. This year it was 2-3 times a week and seriously affected my ability to work and spend time with my kids/family. It landed me in the ER twice due to severe vomiting and dehydration. (the ER it

I have chronic migraines along with my epilepsy. I was having around 20 migraines a month but on Emgality they've gone down a lot and the severity is so much more manageable. For the last 4ish years, if I had a horrible migraine attack I'd take my Sumatriptan with some benedryl and it'd usually kil

I get migraines/headaches. I have 2 kinda similar genres of headache. One is pretty much the same as pre-epilepsy. It's got a distinct stabbing sensation in the side of my head, I can usually stop it or dull it with over-the-counter analgesics (particularly Advil 2). The other one started appearing
