Hey Steve15,

Well, if that allows you to read when your symptoms increase, maybe you don't need anything stronger.

But there are a lot of more effective headache medications a neurologist/headache specialist would likely try if you were interested in trying some to improve functionality. It seems like they often prescribe both preventives to lower the chance you get headaches in the first place and abortives that diminish your headaches once you have them. I use both kinds, though I can't really recommend them because it'll probably take a little bit to find the combination that works for you. (Like I'm finding one of the new CGRP drugs to he pretty effective, but apparently you have to have tried most other drugs before insurance will approve you for these. )
