Submited By: Carol Turansky on 02/18/2009 Migraine prevention
I have suffered for over 20 years with diagnosed chronic migraine (but not with aura, not food/stress related, not hormonal). Neurologists tried me on various preventative treatments to no avail and I couldn't take Imigran etc cos didn't agree with me. Migraines could last for days and come 4 or 5 times a month. Awful.
Last year I read about Butterbur Petasin by Linpharma on the internet, did some research and decided 'what can I lose?' I started taking it September 2008 at the recommended dosages. 5 months on and I can honestly say it has changed my life. I get maybe one migraine a month which is controlled with normal painkillers.
I tried stopping taking Butterbur Petasin as the leaflet suggests, but the migraines started coming back. Having checked with Linpharma that it's ok to do so, I am back taking them. This is truly an amazing product and I have sent a report to the Migraine Trust in London. I urge anyone with chronic migraine to try it and persevere for a few months - you will be amazws.
