Last week was a terrible week I had a migraine every single day except Friday but then Friday I felt terrible spacey tired, brain fog. It was not good. I did however have a good weekend. Now its Tuesday and I started with yet another migraine yesterday, this seems to normally go hand in hand with the second wave of my period though I have not restarted the spotting the head doesnt care! What is very frustrating about these headaches is that they do not seem to go away all day what I mean is that they go away then come back so its 2 maxalts per day. Now when you get 12 per month I am worried I will not have enough. I called the Dr. Today because I am so frustrated but really dont think he will help I have lost all faith. I have read allot about the herb butterbur I had a long talk with my husband this weekend. Since I have seen this new Dr. I have gotten worse, lowering the topamax needed to be done but has made the migraines much much worse and most likely the lowering of the verapamil has not helped either. I believe I need to get off the topamax it has changed my personality and made me depressed and stupid Now when I am getting a migraine i believe that I loose m ability to think well and then when the really bad brain fog kicks in forget about it. So back to what I have been reading about butterbur people on websites can rate how these things work for them and butterbur seems to get high ratings many people say that it takes the brain fog away I have never read that ANYTHING takes away brain fog! The other thing is since I have lost so much weight I truly hate to have these drugs with the side effect of weight gain as so many of these migraine drugs do and the mental side effects like actually giving me brain fog or making me angry or agitated make me so nervous. I have a very important wedding this weekend and I just pray that I feel good for it geez I just pray I feel good tomorrow.
