    raises hand

    I down a lot of caffeine to take the edge off my ocular migraines. Some days, sunlight hurts to look at.

      If you can, look into Qulipta (migraine preventative) and Ubrelvy (migration abortive) medications. Finally getting into see a neurologist was life changing for me.

          I’ve been dealing with migraines since I was a sophomore in high school. It was a long road getting there. Insurance generally requires older/cheaper medications first (as the above two are not cheap for them). There are lots of other options that may work, but a Neuro (as apposed to a family doctor) will know the options/uses/etc.
