Hello Marialiana. I have been a migraine sufferer for over 30 years and I too have gone through many different medications. I tried Gammacore last year and had no positive results from it. I found it weird to use it takes a big commitment to use as regularly as is required. Certainly give it a try. I have been having Botox for about 16 months now. 5 sessions over that period. It has helped reduce the number of severe attacks and made others easier to cope with. My main reason for trying it, apart from pain control was to reduce the number of triptans I took each week. This has worked so hopefully my increased risk of a stroke has been significantly reduced. I know my main triggers and sometimes it about choosing to do something knowing the possible outcome of a migraine. Good luck.
