Q: Migraine Relieve - Dietary Supplement Study Invitation

I'm migraine sufferer.
I was on topomax (it stopped working after a year), i'm frequent imitrex user and frequent er visitor.
I start taking cellfood - dietary supplement - about 3 weeks ago.
I have to say - I didn't have really bad migraine since.
And I was already on every four days migraine schedule.

My daughter (high school) is a migraine sufferer too and she is interesting in conducting cellfood/migraine relieve study.

Is anybody interesting with giving her feedback after trying this supplement?

I will see my doctor in 10 days, let him look into ingredients of this supplement and I will let everybody know what he thinks.

She would like to collect data and if promising, create report which can help inform more people (she probably will create a web page).

She (or i) are not interesting in selling this product, just help to (possibly) find something which doesn't have side effects and can help !!!

Me and my daughter will be waiting for your response.

Supplement.

Is this a supplement I can get from a pharmacy or a vitamin shop? How much does it cost? Does it have any side effects at all, and does it interfere with other medications?

I would be interested in trying it, and reporting my findings, however, I already take a preventative, nortriptyline so i'm not sure if my findings would be significat at all. On and off I still have one migraine with aura a week.

Supplement

I don't know if any helthfood stores sell cellfood.
You can find it on internet; cost about $30.0 for a month supply.
Makers are claiming that it doesn't interact with any meds.
I printed ingredients and show it to my neurologist yesterday, he said he can not comment on it, but if it works for me, he doesn't see anything in it which could kill me.
He also told me to take 150mg of riboflavin (vitamin b2) per day and see him after one month.
I can not say I didn't have any migraines since i'm on cellfood,
but I didn't have to go to er, it took only 1 excedrin migraine to get rid of the pain, once I had to take one imitrex.
This is hudge improvement for me - my migraines were lasting for at least 3 days previously and excedrin wasn't the drug of choice (just didn't work). So so far i'm improving. How long it will last - I hope forever....

Ryboflavin

I just checked prescription my doctor gave me - it is 1200 mg of b12 per day.

I bought it 2 days ago - no difference yet, but no migraine either.
