"i have had chronic daily migraines since 1997 and over the last 13 years i have seen so many different doctors, neurologists, headache specialists, pain management specialists, etc. the only thing that helped me for awhile was stadol ns, but after a car accident and injuring my lower back and neck the migraines changed to being double-sided and were unbearable. i went from working 60  hours a week to not being able to work at all. there were days that i couldn&#039;t even get out of bed because the pain was so bad. i was changed over to dilaudid and the pills work okay if i can keep them down (throwing up due to the migraines), but the injections work within 15 minutes. overall the iv form of dilaudid works the best, which i have used in the er."
