Today I saw the second opinion Doctor (My regular migraine doctor referred me). I am not going to lie, I had high hopes, based on everything he does. But to tell you the truth, I was disappointed a little.
He went through my whole history, diagnosed me as having chronic migraines. After he looked at all the preventives I have tried he said that there are not many options (ha!). The next thing I am going to try is Sansert. Its success rate is supposed to be 50-50, it either works or doesn't. The only bad thing is that I won't be able to use Imitrex as an abortive. So I will be without abortives. It can only be used for 6 months, then a break of about a month, then you can use it again. We'll see what my doctor says about the Sansert, it's up to him.
He also wants me to have a good eye exam, because there are some issues with my peripheral vision.
I don't know, it was a weird day, and the past week was hell (still is). So the best thing is to go and have some sleep, and tomorrow will be a lovely day :).
