Hi! Back in August I started getting headaches daily, because of that I started taking otc meds a lot to help with pain. I got myself in a cycle of a rebound headache loop which just made things worse. I finally got to the headache clinic and they put me on a 3 week prednisone taper to get me out of the cycle of otc meds and then stared me on emgality. I’m on month 3 of emgality and haven’t seen much of a difference. The only thing that helps or gives me relief is anti inflammatories. My migraines are daily, one sided, the intensity increases/ decreases, and it gives me sharp zapping pains if I move to fast or a certain way. It feels more like burning and hurts the temple/ back of my head. My doctor said it’s chronic migraine & occipital neuralgia. I feel like there is more going on but I’m not sure what? Anyone have similar experiences?
