For Migraine "Severe migraines/cluster headaches: 8 years. Intensity/frequency varies. Intensity is around 9-10 (10 point scale), frequency is around 3-4 per week, some lasting 2-3 days. I have tried many medications, most triptans - Maxalt, Zomig, Relpax, Frova. Axert works well for me, but when it doesn't, I use Alsuma injection. It works like an EpiPen injection you give yourself. Place the pen against your skin and push hard. There is a jolt, and then the needle point emerges and you keep it there for 5 seconds. The pain from the prick is not bad because the needle is small. The jolt is kinda scary. I have to brace myself, but way worth it. It works. Some nausea, but not many other side effects. I usually go to sleep right after I take it."
