Has Anyone Tried The Beam Drink Supplement By Cove?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Cary, NC

I am thinking about trying this. It has enough B2 and magnesium for me. However, I would have to take an additional CoQ10 capsule since Beam doesn't have enough. Thanks!

I'm In Desperation Mode

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Muddy, IL

About a year after my ex kicked me in the back of my head with his steel toe boot during a very violent beating which also left me with broken bones, I began having headaches. At the time, I just treated them on my own OTC and went on. As the years went by, my head pain worsened. Now it has been 25yrs since that night that changed my life. I have been on every possible migraine medication out there plus beta blockers, Botox injections, and too many to remember but all have failed to help me at… read more

Is Daily Ibuprofen Really Dangerous?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Phoenix, AZ

I have a migraine headache starting first thing in the morning every day. Some days the headache is more severe and some days not too bad. Also, some days it resolves by noon and some days lasts all day. Overall, you can see it really interferes with my daily activities activities and just general sense of well being.

Does Work Tend To Aggravate Migranes?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Eagan, MN

I already lost my career once and feel I'm about to lose it all over again
When the migranes first hit, in 2018, they literally came out of the blue. I was fine one day, than BAM at work the next excruciating head pain, dizziness and nauseau. Shortly after, diagnosed with chronic migranes. On various medical leaves for a yr. Migranes declined a bit but than, the second I went back to work they hit again in clusters. I finally had to resign.
