Erenumab vs TOPIRAMATE

Hello everyone! It only occurred to me today the there should be a Reddit group for people with migraine. I’m a family doctor from Chile (excuses for my English!), and I’ve suffered migraines for most of my life. I’ve tried pretty much every single preventive medication. Currently I’m with a monthly

Hi guys! I have this list of things to try (some I’ve!) and I thought I’d share. I included some of the usual stuff, because you never know what can help someone else! :) Please feel free to share your experiences with any of these/ to add some more if you want to! Take - Magnesium - Feverfew - But

So I noticed that aimovig is called erenumab-aooe. The last part of that I think is pronounced **owie** (I can't think of how else that mash up of vowels should be pronounced) and because it's for migraines I think...*well played aimovig* I also noticed some time ago that Forfivo (buproprion 450mg)

In the act, they cite material to which they referred to assist their decision making. One study is from the UK, where vaping is appreciated and encouraged because it helps a lot of people stop inhaling carcinogenic tobacco smoke and so far, has not delivered any notable health problems. It's been a

I got given the option to trial erenumab today while going for my 12 weekly Botox appointment. I had to choose between the two and thought it seemed worth a shot. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s tried it yet, especially anyone that’s also tried Botox. How was your experience? Did it help (espec

Hi all, I know this is a common question/topic of discussion here but I’m so frustrated and I’m looking for any help. I’m currently on 1200 lithium and 150 lamictal. Started 50 topiramate once a night 3 1/2 weeks ago, have seen no results, no change in appetite, nothing. I was diagnosed a year ago

So my husband turned 28 today. It's his first birthday since we got married, his first birthday in years when all our friends can hang out, he has the day off, we have our own place, and generally everything is good. Only problem is that this morning I woke up with my mania coming to a screeching ha

Hi everyone, if you’re reading this, thank you. From the deepest I can, I appreciate you. I ***finally*** got my diagnosis on the 30th of September after many years of confusion, seeing multiple counselors, therapists, doctors and psychiatrists. Earlier in the month I voluntarily spent a week in th

Hey all! I started noticing significant shedding of my hair about six months after upping my dose of topiramate to 75 mg/day. It seemed to get worse when I switched generic brands to Teva and right now about 2/3 of my hair is gone. Literally clumps were falling out on my floors and I was cleaning

It’s a mixture of bad choices influenced by a depression episode and reasons out of my control. I was fit last summer during a hypomanic episode then I went through a following depression episode last fall/winter and gained 30lb through binge eating. Hovered there.
