Any grey peptides for migraine headache

[lessthanhalf]

Basically agree with everything there. Doctors who actually listen are very valuable. I even had bleeding from low dose aspirin not long after starting it though I was taking it for cardiovascular reasons, thankfully it was not dramatic and just resulted in low iron numbers. I respond super well to eletriptan, though it did not help for the 20 years or more of migraines I had before it was around. And despite working nearly always, doubles the chances of another one the next day so does not always work as a solution. Not much specific research on GLP's and migraine but there is definite evidence they reduce various different chronic pain issues including neuropathic pain so they might end up finding evidence they help.

Oh no, that is terrible about elitriptan mostly working but then doubling the chance the next day, holy , that would mess with me for sure.

I wonder how many of these meds have a downside of some sort of worsening?

Glps or at least tirz apparently usually improves migraines, but shear enough perks comment they are worse that it seems clearly not for everyone. I am one of the unlucky ones, and already the professional comment I almost always get first is, but tirz usually helps migraines . Still it helps so much with other things that I’m trying very hard to keep taking it. This why I was so pleased to find out that ghkcu works. But it has its own issues lol.

RSs with migraine, unite!

Hrt drastically reduced my migraines and cluster headaches. I maybe had 5 pain free days a month. In the past 2y since starting hrt, I’ve had fewer than 10 migraines/headaches in total.

Migraines cause brain issues due to lack of oxygen, and current thinking also is that this causes long term permanent consequences other than days of pain, which is bad enough.

I read about this before and it is very scary! Apparently migraines are associated with a significantly increased risk for all-cause dementia and Alzheimer disease (though we don't know if it's a causal relationship).

But definitely a reason I want to find something that acts as a preventative rather than an abortive medication. I've tried a lot of standard meds already mentioned and the only two that work are Excedrin and triptans, which are both not great to be taking every day. I appreciate everyone's recommendations, the legit and also the sketchy ones lol.

I looked into KPV for migraines based on that infamous baseball cap dude, but from a brief scraping of the Reddits it seems more people say it causes headaches for them than cures them. Still might give it a go just because I don't have any other options.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, but i've noticed i've had less migraines since week 2-3 of bpc+tb (and the few i've had have been less intense). Could just be a coincidence, but i'm guessing the outcome depends on what causes migraines for you (in my case it's neck/spine issues). Like other comments mention electrolytes and plenty of water does help at times, but not always, at least for me. I'm definitely considering getting KPV and Ghk-Cu when i'm done with my current "research" batch (might just get Klow tbh).
