Pain

[endlessmelancholy]

I have been getting headaches of different intensity almost all my life. Pain killers don't help most of the time. How do deal with similar pain? Sometimes I feel like ctb.

Could it be migraines? Those require special medications, regular painkillers (whether OTC or prescription) don't work for them. Brain lesions or other damage could also be causing that. Might be a good idea to get a MRI done just to check.

I highly recommend Nurtec or Qulipta if you haven't tried them yet. They are a newer class of migraine meds that work way better than triptans or betablockers. There's also a supplement called CoQ10 that reduces frequency of attacks for some people. Migraines are so awful and debilitating, I'm sorry you have to deal with them.
