I can not say enough about how helpful injections are. Here is and example: I went to bed ( around 10:30pm) with a migraine that on pain scale was about a 3 or 4 out of 10. I slept and woke up at 4 am with the same pain level so I took 2 over the counter migraine medication. I fell back to sleep and woke up at 6:15am at about an 8 pain scale out of 10. I knew if I took an Imitrix pill, it would not be helpful enough and take to long to work. I could also tell if I did nothing it would get worse ( this takes a number if years to learn to judge).
So I asked my husband to get my injection. Within 15min. I am now at about a level 2. I am also drinking a cold can of pepsi ( I know it's horrible at 6am). I know within the hour I will be pain-free and go on with a great day.
A few years ago when I didn't have injections as part of my treatment plan I would have waited and waited until I could not stand it any more than ask someone to take me to the Emergency Room.
What a difference they have made for me. It really leaves me with no pain at all, which is also something that the pills do not do. I always feel like when I take a pill the pain "kinda" goes away hours later when I am finally at a 0 out of 10.
I hope if you need a new treatment you look into adding the Injection in whatever medication works best for you. For me it is Imitrix.
I would love to hear from the group if they use injections and how they work for you guys and if you don't use them "why not"
Thanks
Have a great day and Happy Friday!
