Hey everyone,
I’ve always struggled with chronic migraines. I got on birth control a few years ago and started getting migraines only around my cycle. I stopped taking it a few months ago in January because I was getting aura migraines. Now I get headaches often, especially around my eyes which I never used to get (they’re usually around my temples and neck). I started going to physiotherapy on Fridays and I was getting them every weekend so I stopped going. However, I’m still getting migraines every weekend. I started working a stressful job on the weekdays a few months ago, so I’m not sure if it’s related to that or if it’s related to stopping birth control.
I take Nurtec and sumatriptan every weekend and I feel like that can’t be good for my body. I’m getting tired of these constant migraines and I’m wondering if anyone has any tips on what to do? I’m thinking of starting acupuncture. Thanks!
