hi all newbie here
Hi All.
I was diagnosed with Migraines about 5 years ago, but suffered for years before the I was diagnosed. I get around 2/ 5 + Migraines a week. Plus Daily Headaches in between the attacks. I also suffer from CH ( Cluster Headaches).
Have tried many preventive Meds with no luck. Im allergic to Triptans . Which leaves only narcotic medicine to help relive the pain.

Great avatar!
I am in the same boat as you - allergic to triptans!
Are you able to work? I am not currently working because of too many migraines, and it's impossible to work when you are high on narcotics!!
This forum has really helped me a lot, so welcome, and I hope you find some help here, too!

Hi newby, I also suffer from daily headaches but have been able to take tripans - but they don't work so I suppose we are in the same boat. I have had to return to work 3 mornings a week and somedays I float to work. I am sure they are wondering what they hired some days!
Good luck to you, keep on the forum it is a help to know you are not alone.
