HEALTH INTERESTS:

Severe Migraine with Aura

DRUGS I AM TAKING:

Imitrex,  Diazepam (as needed),  zolpidem tartrate (to help me sleep)

ABOUT ME:

I am 61 and have been suffering with headaches all my life. Was diagnosed with migraines in 1995. Was forced to retire when I was 53 because I was missing so much work. I am currently on SS Disability and not able to hold a job. This has been a devastating blow to me, because I have worked since I was 14. Thank God I found this website where we can come and share our problems with this debilitating disease. I have many triggers... to many to name... but one of my main triggers is the weather. Anytime the barometric pressure drops.... I get a migraine. Sunshine also triggers mine. Humid days take a terrible toll on me. I just pray that one day someone will know what to do for us. I have taken so many different meds.... I can't begin to name them all.
