Do you take Magnesium supplements? My Neurologist recommends 500mg. a day. Seems to help me get them less frequently and severely.today is gorgeous but the pressure is 30.4 and my head is exploding. I got a neurologist appt for August and I’m going to ask about it. Once a month injection but very pricey. Hope insurance covers it!

I’ve just had a migraine yesterday. For me its always in connection with my period. I realized already, that it won’t help to take any pills, because I have too high blood pressure in the time of the migraine and pain medication won’t help. I just have to lay down, and wait, til my blood pressure normalizes. It’s horrible. Sometimes it takes a few hours, sometimes a day.
Ps dee jay, did you see my question on RSVP?
No, the other one , is it bring a dish to pass? And I got my Hawaiian shirt!
Magnesium. There is apparently a correlation between certain hormonal changes during the course of a month and a magnesium drop. I've been taking it three times a day for a couple of years now and it's made a WORLD of difference. I've gone from a migraine a month (at least) to a couple a year, and the severity of those is way down.

Mi going to try it, thank you for the advice.
Regarding the post of the other ladies: I have it since I was 11, it begun with my period. No one has them from my parents, I think my grandma on my fathers site had it, but can’t clearly remember. I really hope, they go away after menopause, but I’m only at the end of my thirties, so I still have a few years to suffer.
I really hope and pray, that my daughter doesn’t going to have it!!
Thanks KaeKae. It does stink, especially since the doctor thought I might be able to get my shots as early as next week (so I got excited about not being in pain soon!). It’ll take that long because my file has to go through a review process to make sure I’ve tried other approved protocols first since Botox is so expensive. I get it, but the thought of another 6 weeks of migraines almost put me in tears.@ILikeShiny I'm sorry to hear this about the Aimovig. Disappointing.
I hope the Botox is approved and works wonders for you. Why in the world insurance approval would take up to 6 weeks? I'm not expecting you to know the answer, but wow, that's ridiculous. You are in pain.
Fingers crossed on the results of the bloodwork. I realized last night that I had not been taking my regular supplements last week. That includes magnesium. You know I filled my pill box back up and made sure the magnesium was in it. I have to wonder if that contributed to Saturday's migraine.
