It was a good run though. I made it for 12 and 3/4 days - yes, if I had it down to the hours I would give you that too, that's how happy I am that I made it that long.

 

And, even though having another migraine was inevitable, this was a good thing - here's why: I got it ...

    Glad to hear Imitrex worked for you.  The first couple of times I took Imitrex the side effects associated with it were more intense and they lessened with time.  I have taken both Frova and Imitrex and I find the Imitrex works more quickly for me. 

     

    Take care and I hope you have another long run without taking any either!!

    or functional on frova!

     

    Sorry your run came to an end, Eileen! I was enjoying watching that ticker keep going and going...

     

    The good news is that you seem to have your sense of humor firmly implanted in your head, and no migraine tried to pry the humor out of there! Good seratonin, eh? Big Smile

     

    Glad you're feeling better though!

    Eileen I am so sorry to hear that your run of pain freeness (I know that's not a real word) has ended.  I hope you have another one.  I use Relpax because I had the same reactions to Zomig and Imitrex that you describe.  I have little or no side effects with this drug, it is new and kind of pricey but still worth mentioning.

     

    Take care.
