7. Good for you. Only migraine-sufferers appreciate how debilitating they can be.

When mine were at their peak (and I was commuting sixty miles each way for work)--I can't tell you how horrific were the episodes of having to pull over to vomit or to spend a few hours-- if I was experiencing any vertigo-- before trying again. I never had auras and thus not a lot of warning, but I could "taste" something that signaled a chemical change a few minutes before each began.

My migraines were mostly hormonal, but damn if rapid barometric pressure changes did not induce them or worsen the ones I had even more.

I'm very pleased that you are finding some relief. I now have to wonder if it will impact some of those whose long-haul COVID symptoms have included new or recurring migraine.
