A member asked:

I'm on day 8 of a continual migraine. i've been a chronic sufferer for 20yrs. what can i do to break this cycle? my usual tricks aren't working.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Status migranosus: A condition of 5 consecutive days of severe unremitting migraine headaches is referred to as status migranosus. You are perfectly within bounds to report to the nearest ER or contact your doctor for a hospital admission. This needs to be broken with aggressive forms of IV medication. I am happy to counsel as a headache specialist in more detail but you should get this taken care of ASAP.
