I don't know if you all remember, but about 3 weeks ago, my Dr. put me on Magnesium and alpha-Lipoic acid. I was on it for a week and thought my vasculitis was coming back so I quit taking it. I was totally off both for almost a week and decided it wasn't vasculitis so I started taking just the alpha-lipoic acid again. Three days later, added the magnesium back in. During the 2 weeks I was not on both, I had migraines daily-the last one lasting 3 days. I've been back on both for 4 days now and even with a major weather front today, I have no migraine! Nothing else has changed so I guess for me anyway, the suppliments must be doing something.

After my terrible round with the new Treximet, I went back to Maxalt and until about yesterday, was literally living on Maxalt, Advil and Toradol. I woke up this morning pain free, it's rained all day and I'm stil fine. I guess I did a "trail run" to see if it was really helping the migraines or not. I'm just holding my breath that it continues. When I was on them both last time, I went 2 weeks pain free for the first time since Feburary!
