So. I'm on Aimovig for chronic migraine. Been on it since it hit the market. The monthly copay used to be $50, but tey have a copay assistance card, and that reduced the payment to $5.
Until this year.
Now, the payment WITH the copay assistance card is $49.
I thought drug prices were down 1000%.

Mir ist dauernd so migräne-übel diese Woche und das Schmerzlevel ist heute auch schon wieder relativ hoch, wird vermutlich ein Triptan-Tag, aber von denen wird mir anders übel 😕
Morgen Abend die zweite Injektion mit Aimovig, hoffentlich verbessert sich das damit alles noch mehr als nach der ersten.

i actually prefer the syringe method, i hardly feel it and i can control how quick the medication goes in (i push the plunger in nice and slow) vs my migraine shot which is actually painful and it shoots in there so fast the liquid sits under your skin and is uncomfortable. aimovig is known to suck.

working for acute attacks. I'm on my 2nd consultant neurologist now, based at St George's in South London. I have nerve blocks every 3 mths, Aimovig injections monthly & Rimegepant for attacks. My attacks halved with this treatment. Sadly, my hormone blockers for stage 4 breast cancer

es bei mir nicht die Lösung ist, käme danach Ajovy oder Emgality versuchen, das hätte ihre Aimovig-Nieten dann alle geschafft.

So ist es. Zum Mäusemelken. "Also das Aimovig wird Ihnen auf jeden Fall helfen, ich hatte noch keinen einzigen Patienten, dem es nicht geholfen hat". Tja. Hier ist dann also Nummer 1!

I tried several daily pills they didn't work.
Aimovig worked for a few years. I just recently switched to aijovi after an especially untreatable migraine. Def be honest with your doctor about how they make you feel.

I'm always one month away from having migraines so bad they make me low key suicidal.
All that separates me from being functional and quietly hoping I'll die is a $700/month injection I can't afford w/o insurance.
I would never take my own life, but w/o Aimovig, I fantasize about not existing.

Have you ever tried Aimovig? My girlfriend uses it and says it's helped her have less intense/no migranes and now she only has the occasional tension headache

I've been low key miserable for a week. My Aimovig wore off RIGHT as I got my period, so the first week of my new injection has been rough.
I've been pretty high to cope. I want a farming sim but with zero stakes. So I've playing Littlewood.
It's very chill, but more involved than an idler.

When I was still getting them on the regular (hormones were my primary trigger so yay menopause, finally), I found relief from a monthly injection, Aimovig.
I’m sorry you’re dealing with them. It’s miserable.🫂💜

omegaverse aimovig got introduced in the early 90s at the latest im convinced
first conclusion after using aimovig:
- suddenly only 2 attacks since my first injection (i had 10-15 each month this year)
- i didn't work for 2 weeks (often a trigger) but i've had many many other triggers where i just didn't get a migraine all of a sudden
- my last migraine felt less severe
- suddenly only 2 attacks since my first injection (i had 10-15 each month this year)

So, take the advice and try some OTC supplements or not, but I wanted to give the provenance of my advice and experience. It probably won’t work for everyone, but it’s cheap and accessible to try. She also prescribed aimovig but the vitamins helped BEFORE I started it.

I was getting more than 10 headaches and sometimes needed 2 per headache. My new neurologist had me start taking 400mg of B2 and 500mg of magnesium before bed and prescribed Aimovig. Surprisingly the vitamins helped before I got the aimovig and then that kicked them in the ass! So there’s hope 🤞

Not sure if it is a coincidence but I've had only 2 migraine attacks since my first Aimovig dose? 10 was my minimum each month this year.
