It worked well but did burn going in and the site where my IV was is still painful the day after. I was happy to get relief without having to take a narcotic.

I have suffered from Migraines my entire life. I have tried everything with very little success. DHE has been a life saver for me!!!!!! It is the only thing that works for my migraines. The shot is so easy and I didn't feel a thing! :)

This treatment did not work for me. I had this treatment in the hospital in Oct. and vomited after every treatment (every 8 hours for 3 days). Before the DHE, I had a migraine for 3 weeks and I left the hospital with it.
