If they helped you, then it might be worth getting them again.
Also as Dr Smith asks, have you tried any anti-seizure meds for migraine prevention? I was on Topamax for years and it did wonders for me, cut down the frequency of my migraines big time!! I was on it so long that the effectiveness wore off.
The best migraine meds I ever took was Amerge. But, as always, I developed an allergy to it.

I am on 2 different anti seizure meds. I developed epilepsy after 3 surgeries. The meds I take are keppra and vimpat. They have to be brand only because we had a very hard time controlling seizures with generics and other meds. So .. Really there's not much I can do on that end. My epileptologist gave me many different meds and I had a hard time taking all of them. They put me right to sleep, topamax made me feel like a zombie, she gave me some injectable a etc. and when I have a debilitating headache daily, that's not an option. I have been on so many meds and that's why I finally opted for botox. With botox my headaches worsened (a lot!) for at least 3 weeks.
