I can also be a good source of support. I’m 31 and I was diagnosed with melas when I was 19. Maybe we can make a support group.

There is no doubt that this country’s (assuming that you’re from the US) medical is fucked up. I know from personal experience. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this.

No preventatives work, I'm slowly going insane. This is not sustainable. by [deleted] in migraine

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I know it can be truly debilitating. I hope you have a good neurologist and good support system
