Great video. I've taken every medication mentioned in this video and some more for my migraines. I found it interesting that steroids weren't really mentioned in the "toolbox" here. I went through four neurologists before I found one who realized I needed something as simple as prednisone to break my prolonged status migraines. As a patient I wish that someone had thought of that kind of treatment sooner, instead of pushing me towards some of the harsher treatments like topiramate and botox which did nothing for me but cause extreme discomfort.
Constructive feedback: please speak with lively tone and diaphragmatic support: her vocal crackle and monotone makes it hard to stay focused on the content.
I'd love to learn more about your thoughts on trigeminal neuralgia if possible.

Dr Hamilton, My understanding is you also specialize in Trigeminal Neuralgia and pain is that correct?
