The Lyrica has been working well for most migraines, as far as I can tell, the hormonal migraines rather cut into that. My doctor rufused to fill out my short term disability forms, since she said they had all the info, and apparently is not willing to contact my neuro on updates. Whatever. I phoned my neuro and he has added Amerge for a continuous treatment during the hormonal migraine stage. Between these two I should get down to a manageable migraine level, and I have the arthrotec (really not my favorite med) to take if one slips past. I think I have covered all my bases, and even if I had not, got to return to work asap.

I feel your pain, I am in much the same situation myself, I take it you are out of sick time, paid holiday, or vacation? I have gotten to where I am using that to supplement my sick time. As soon as I get any, it's pretty much gone, let me know what happens!

PS Never heard of Lyrica or the anti inflammatory you mentioned.
