    If you suffer from (seasonal) migraines, I'm sorry. They really, REALLY suck. Mine correlate directly with the weather. The single Atlantic hurricane of the year that came our way, Isaias, triggered the first one. Then the massive weather shift, going from very warm to very cold in a couple days destroyed me for 3 days. I still have brain fog which may persist for a few days.

    I take Qulipta as a preventative, but even that can't stop these massive hammer blows to my head by the weather.

    Migraine 1 (October 10 – October 11): Timing: Began in the early morning hours of October 10 and lasted roughly 1.5 days. Pressure Trend: This attack kicked off right as the relative pressure peaked (~30.27 inHg) and initiated a steep downward plunge. Migraine 2 (October 14 – October 18): Timing: Hit late Wednesday night (October 14) and persisted until you woke up on October 18. Pressure Trend: This longer, more severe episode started near a stable plateau (~29.80 inHg), rode out a prolonged downward trough to a low of 29.53 inHg on October 16–17, and cleared up right as the pressure rebounded sharply toward 30.38 inHg.

    Oof. So sorry you’re suffering. Here’s hoping for a short hurricane season.

    Don’t know what triggers my officemate’s migraines, but the brain fog (and, oddly, hunger) is what hits them first, long before the pain. “Oh crap, I’m suddenly stupid and starving. Better take my meds now.”

    I wonder if there have been any studies to see if adding the usual combo of magnesium/B2/CoQ10 to qulipta — or maybe taking them prophylactically during bad spells — would help boost qulipta’s pain relief. (Or if it’s a bad idea.)
