The Sumatriptan did nothing for him. They gave him Zolmitriptan instead. I was reading about the new medication. And of course nothing is ever quick and easy. I know relief will take time. Anything is better than suffering half of each month with migraines. I have migraines but his are much worse. But after trying so many other medications, the neurologist approved the botox without further tests or meds. He saw her at one clinic before she transferred to the U of MN. He loves her so when I found out she transferred, he transferred his care. So all his records from her previous work with him went right to her and there was no need to repeat anything. We will wait and see how it goes.
