It depends: on what has been tried and what has not been tried. Doctors and medications can only go so far, patients need to watch for dietary triggers and alter lifestyle as well. PROPER SLEEP is a must!! I'd see a neurologist that specializes in migraines. You can check listing at the american headache society website.

Yes...: You may want to consider having your doctor/headache specialist see if Botox can be approved for your migraine headaches. If it works you could have significantly less migraines for at least 3-4 months at a time. Many times people's migraines are cut in half if not more. The use of your oral migraine prevention medications and abortives are much more helpful and reduce occurrences even better.
