Migraine Prevention
"I started having daily migraines Sept. 2014. Topiramax (can&#039;t spell anymore). from primary MD.
No improvement. Saw neurologist Dec. 2014. started on Zonisamide. 50mg. built up to 150mg.
was having about 28 migraines pre meds. Decreased to about 22. for a few months. Then decreased to 14-18 per mo. summer of 2015. Took Pt. end of summer and headaches increased to upper 20s again. MRI done in summer showed Spinal Stenosis but no severe enough to warrant surgery. Dosage of Zonisamide increased to 250 mg. did not help so Neuro. decreased it back to 150mg.  pain became more severe and every day. At present am on 200 mg. and to go up to 250 mg. next week. Still with migraines every day. Getting 2nd set of spinal injections with steroids tomorrow."
