SIDE EFFECT OF EMGALITY FULL

I have been suffering from daily migraines for years. I am shocked that the many other common symptoms are not being shared with patients, before starting this medication. My first two injections were in March 2023. When I was having other symptoms, I started researching and finally found the reviews on this site. worst experience ever for me!!!'įor Migraine Prevention 'My neurologist told me that the only side effect of Emgality was constipation and some weight gain. It causes tremors for me in neck and hands too. I took my third dose and then I started to research it deeper. anxiety went away and then came back in May. Fight or flight mode from the minute I woke up till the minute I went to bed. In month two I started to have severe anxiety.

I was having a lot of pain and cramping in the quad that injection was givin. I noticed in the first month that my headaches had subsided. I finally built up the nerve to try the Emgality after being told Redness at injection site or constipation were the worst side affects. I have usually only treated my migraines as needed with Maxalt or nurtec. I have suffered with migraines with visual auras causing me numbness in my face and arms, hands sometime. I don't know if mine is helping because it is so early to tell but I am still more than functional enough to continue to and the shots didn't hurt as much as others on here are making them out to be.'įor Migraine Prevention 'Hi everyone. I just wanted to post this to help others out there who are terrified of even trying the medication due to all the negative reviews. My only side effect thus far is that I feel a bit more tired than usual.

SIDE EFFECT OF EMGALITY FULL

I have had a few minor head throbs but no full blown migraines yet (hopefully that keeps up). No massive same day or multiday reactionary headaches like others have described. I just let my medication sit out for an hour before administering to let it get to room temperature. The injections were not painful or scary at all. I've been hesitant to start because of the negative reactions I've read on sites like this one. Meds should not be the ONLY thing you rely on for your migraines, you have to WORK WITH your meds & prioritize your health especially when you have chronic pain/illness!'įor Migraine Prevention 'I took my loading dose of Emgality a few days ago (two shots). I have not gained weight on Emgality, I’m still losing weight. Do I think Emgality would’ve worked as well the years I was eating bad & never getting exercise? NO. I’m a healthy 24 year old who exercises regularly & eats pretty clean which is such an underrated addition to migraine prevention. I’m 3 months in & this is the longest I’ve gone without a migraine in my life. But when I got them they would still last long & the meds didn’t help. Once I prioritized a healthy life style, going to the gym & a balanced diet the frequency of my migraines drastically dwindled to only about 3/month rather than 2-3 a week spanning from 24-72 hours straight. My body adapted to them & I would still get migraines. For Migraine Prevention 'I’ve tried so many prescriptions.
