How Long Can a Migraine Attack Last? Exploring the Four Phases

[@PathD0709]

I have chronic migraines that has put me on disability over 5 years ago. Now, at age 65 I doubt I will ever be able to work anymore. I am struggling how to determine I am in predrome for sure. My pain symptoms are fast onset and I get the 72 hour+ migraines. Over and over I am only prescribed 10 ubrelvy a month and 6 Maxalt while rounding back to botox treatment. I desperately need the pills in the pain phase. If I could understand that I am going down better I will take the ubrelvy sooner and not waste them. I usually wake up in the night sick with full on pain phase. I don't understand how I can catch it early. Any recommendations? I have a super neurologist and he is a Dr that cares. We have tried everything insurance approves. 😢

Same here! But my insurance company only gives me 9 Eletriptan and I Aimovig injection per month.

Going on three years of chronic headaches and nothing touches it. Strange dizziness and odd symptoms too.
