Thats great!!! I haven't had one in a few months.
What prescript are you taking? I'm on Furicet (sp?) which works really well!



I take Topamax. It's actually an epilepsy med that's been found to help migraines (I don't have epilepsy).
I know some people have had not-so-good experiences w/ it, but I've had nothing but a positive outcome w/ no side effects. (I'm on a super low dosage).
I hear Furicet is great as well.
Yay Drugs! JK.



I also take Topamax(I am also an epileptic & on other epilepsy meds). It has certainly helped ease the amt and severity of them. I also take Relpax if I feel one starting.

How much do you take? I take 100mg once a day and also drink lots of coffee!!!!

Thats great one year migraine free - I get them monthly with my cycle - some worse than others. I used to take Immitrex, it worked ok. Congrats!

Thanks everybody.

To answer your question, I take 50 mg a day. I usually have 1-2 cups of tea in the am, that's it for the day. I try not to overdo it on the caffeine.
