Comment:
Went from 5-7 vestibular migraine days per week to 1. From that standpoint itâ??s great. The night after I took my 5th month shot I had heart palpitations in the middle of the night and again in the morning but none since. It scared me as Iâ??ve never had a heart issue before.

Comment:
I’ve had daily migraine for 40 years. I’ve tried every drug on the market without success. I took my first loading dose 4 days and I haven’t had a migraine. It is a miracle for me and has given me my life back. I do have a few hives around my torso. A small price to pay. I’m happy and have joy that I never had since a kid. Thank you Lilly. I’m grateful.

Chronic migraine sufferer - 15 /month. This started working with 2 hours of injection. Actually aborted current migraine then I haven't had another migraine in 1 month. I will have my 2nd injection in 2 days. We'll see long-term if it continues to work. No side-effects so far.

Comment:
I have gone from 9 to 13 headache days per month to no headache days. Emgality has exceeded my expectations. For me, the only side effect has been slight redness at the injection site. I am so happy to be in control of my life again. I had tried countless other treatments with no success. This is a miracle drug. It seemed to start working almost immediately after my first loading dose. Amazing
