My son's migraine journey [View all]

So I took him for his appointment with his neurologist and he is being switched from Botox to Emgality. I am so thankful for the insurance and the great healthcare that he has. His neurologist is phenomenal. The University hospital is so supportive. I knew it was only a matter of time before he was switched. Here's hoping this is the answer. I guess at his next appointment she is thinking about getting rid of the Zolmig too. This medicine can only be authorized by 4 neurologists at the University hospital, luckily he has one of them. Hopefully things will start to go in a more positive direction for him.
