Sometimes a migraine medication does not suit you, or the side effects are hard to live with. That is common, and it does not mean nothing else can be tried. Keep a headache diary so you and your physician can see patterns, and review your plan together.
Questions you may want to ask your physician
• Did I take the medication long enough, and in the way you intended?
• Could my headache pattern or diagnosis have changed?
• What other options can we discuss next?
• Should I be referred to a neurologist?
Some people with frequent headaches also clench or grind their teeth, or have jaw pain. If that sounds familiar, mention it to your physician and to your dentist.
