My mom has been dealing with migraines that bad for years. I don't think her neuro has tried an anti-seizure med yet. I'll definitely have her bring it up during her appointment next week. Thank you for sharing!

You're welcome! I hope your mom can find something that works for her. Life with migraines is terrible. One of my co-workers got a migraine one day when we were working together and he looked at me and said "how do you live like this, how do you handle the constant pain, this is unbearable" and I said "what other choice do I have, I can't make them stop, the only other option I have is to kill myself." Finding the right treatment was just amazing, I never thought they'd go away. I've been getting them since I was a child.
