Has anyone ever taken Axert for Migraines?

Hi there, Amos Family! My health has improved greatly since WLS, but 2 things have not changed. My cycles suck, big time! I've had it now for almost 7 months, I've seen 3 specialists and they all agree that NONE of them will touch me with a scalpel, I've had too many surgeries in that regard, so I'm doomed to endure this fate. Ok, I can deal with that, dealt with bad cycles since I was 12. But the other new thing I've developed is Migraines! I have daily headaches, but a couple of times a week, I get bad head-wrenching migraines. My neurologist gave me "Axert" to try. I looked in the library and could not find anything, I even tried typing in the generic form. So has anyone who's had the RNY ever tried this? I know my doctor deals with WLS patients and he knows what I can and cannot have, but I also know my AMOS family would give me some personal background on this stuff, will it upset my tummy, should I drink or eat something prior? I've tried the Zomig, but not this one. Anything? Anyone? Any help will do. Thanks so much, Vi. open RNY 9/23/02 down 151 lbs with 25 more to go.
