I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM MIGRAINES FOR YEARS. IT BROUGHT MY CAREER AS A BOND SPECIALIST TO AN END DUE TO THE FREQUENCY OF HEADACHES THAT I HAD. I WENT THRU MANY DR.'S

AND HAVE BEEN SEEING A NEUROLOGIST WHO PRESCRIBED LYRICA FOR ME AS A PEVENTATIVE. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS I HAVE GONE A WEEK WITHOUT A MIGRAINE. I STILL GET THEM . SOME NOT AS BAD AS BEFORE .I WILL PROBABLY GET MY RX INCREASED DOSAGE OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. I HOPE THAT HELPS ME

Barry,

 

I have chronic cluster headaches that have almost completely disabled me.  So I feel your pain.  I was also put on Lyrica and the results have been incredible.  Chronic migraine/cluster headache sufferers really need to seek this medication out if other standard treatments fail.  Maybe we're helping get the word out.

 

Best regards,

 

Kevin.
