"It really worked for the migraines, but I started to notice that I was having a difficult time explaining things to friends or family. Literally, I could not find the words to express myself. And it kept getting worse real fast. I sounded like a blathering idiot, and I still do. This isn't just brain fog, I feel like I've lost the ability to properly communicate and at least 30 percent of my vocabulary is shot. Not to mention my blood pressure shot up to 155/110. I'm 5 ft 4 in and I weigh around 135 lbs. I don't normally have blood pressure issues. The side effects of this medication for me outweigh the positive outcome. If I keep taking this stuff, I'll be sitting in a nursing home drooling all over myself not knowing my own name. Once again, this medication did stop my migraines, and not everyone will have the same side effects."
