Had to share my THRILL at no migraine for over a week! I am on Topamax for a preventative. My arms and legs are numb and may tingle, but I'll take that any day instead of a migraine Yes

I usually get a two day prior to and three day after my period migraine, and I am migraine free so far!

It has been years! I forgot how it felt to be pain free! I want this to last forever! Fingers Crossed

Trish,

That is totally, totally awesome. Do enjoy yourself, and be proud of hanging in there and doing what it took to get to this point.

Isn't it great when symptoms break? I find myself often sitting quietly just enjoying the peacefulness of being able to hold my head up normally!

I'm thrilled for you. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

All good things must come to an end. I am thankful for a glimpse of how wonderful normal life can be. I went to my sons baseball game on monday, sat on the bleachers in the sun, for 3 hours. Since this is the normal time of the month I for sure, get at least 3-4 migraines, I should have known better. I woke up at 4:00 am. with a whopper. My zomig is working, but I am sort of deflated. Embarrassed The topamax is helping though. I think after my doctor appt. in a few weeks, if I get the leg cramping thing figured out and can increase the dose again, it should help the migraines.

Thanks to everyone for being so happy for me. I did do the happy dance for awhile! Thanx

Nope. Not the end. Just a temporary hiccup, and heavy on the temporary. That's what I'm wishing with all my heart for you! Smiler
