Migraine with aura

Migraleve always worked for me but having nasal polyps removed provided a pretty well permanent cure.

Ask your doc. The interesting things are prescription only.

I'm on Pizotifen. I don't think it stops them, but the after effects are a mild headache instead of having to go to bed for the rest of the day.

You have a new underlying condition, which is aggravating the migraine.

You complained in a recent thread about "dehydration". But you did not mention whether you had "increased thirst".

I'd want to see a doctor, and have a blood test, and see what had popped out-of-band.

This isn't the migraine doing this all by itself. The migraine is a "hint" you need to check the basics.

I had two conditions at one time. I had acephalgic aura. And some number of days after that, I absentmindedly used my blood pressure meter (hadn't used it for months) and my BP was 200/100. Well, after I started getting meds for the BP, I no longer had acephalgic aura. Cured, just like that, by treating the underlying condition, which was my BP.

good suggestion

no

I am never thirsty.....

BP is OK

DON'T THINK i WOULD BE ALLOWED TO TAKE THAT

A study found magnesium cleared 100% of migraines. A quick search isn't finding it, but it's a pretty clear pointer to what's going on.

My wife was talking to me about supplements at lunchtime...

I might give it a go though!

Andy

illogical & idiotic as usual

that's Rod

My wife has reminded me that I did give it a go some years ago, with no noticeable effect.
