Neurologist gave me some samples of Nurtec to try for migraines till we see results of MRI’s and cat scan of throat and pet scan 🤷‍♂️ I took one about 10 o’clock last night and seemed to help but was still up all night 🤬 Have a good weekend 👍🏼🙏😉

Does the Nurtec have caffeine in it? If so maybe that is why you couldn’t sleep . 🐾🤔

No caffeine but you take it at the beginning of the start of a migraine day or night. Hopefully some sleep 😴 tonight as no nap today 🤞🏼😉

Up all night, so sorry. Even with my MS meds, I still take 2&1/2 generic Ativan to sleep at night. my RX is for 3 a night, but if I can get by okay, I'm just not ready to take even more drugs. Hope you can find the magic combination for yourself.. Oh.. sometimes I add a half of a 5 MG Melatonin. It works for me especially when we are traveling. Best to you.

Ken, if you find anything that actually works for your migraines, can you let us know? My boy's in the same boat, and nothing works for him.

Ajovy is working very well for ‘someone’ I know. (Hippa? LOL). I give her a monthly SC injection. Of course, it stings like a b***h but it has reduced her migraines from 8-10 a month to maybe one. Everyone is different but worth asking about.

Kenu, There are lots of new products on the market today. I pray that 1 Of them will help you with a the terrible pain and sleepless nights that migraines can pause.I only had one when I was in my late twenties and it was horrible. I was fortunate however because I never had another one since. Don't give up on finding a cure because it's out there for the migraine issue. Fancy59.
