[quote=Anonymous]I am a chronic migraine sufferer and have had several cycles of a very bad migraine like yours. When they hit like that, I have ended up in the ER three times for a cocktail of fluids, steroids, narcotics, and anti-nausea meds via IV. It's the only thing that works. Now when I have a headache that seems to not respond to my triptans over two days or so, I call my neurologist and get put on a multi day steroid taper (Prednisone). It is frigging miracle! It breaaks the cycle. I also have seen the neuro people at GW. I now have a wonderful neurologist at Hopkins that I drive to see. For the first time in two years, I am not getting a daily headache. I also have seen Dr. Elizabeth Latimer in Bethesda. She doesn't take insurance but she is also good. Best of luck[/quote]
