i saw the neurologist who was very very helpful! She started me on 500 mg magnesium, 400 mg vit b2, 500 mg coq10. Also propanolol 1 in the morning and 2 at night. I was getting 5-6 headaches a week. After two weeks I was down to about 3 a week and less severe. She sent authorization for a aimovig but it was denied till I did 6 mo of Botox. About 3 weeks ago I did the 31 Botox shots. It was painful! The first week I had continuous headaches. The second week it stopped. Now I have 1-2 minor headaches a week. My liver is happy I am not living on painkillers. The only down side is sensitivity to light , I can’t move my forehead, my eyelids swell a bit. I’m glad I did it. I don’t think I will move on to aimovig unless the Botox stops working.
