I still get the onset symptoms but I usually don't get the headache now. For what it's worth, a dentist told me that a combo of 3 ibuprofen and one tylenol was as effective as almost any prescription pain med. Seems like a lot of pain meds use acetaminophen as a catalyst. I'm sorry but I don't know what an AED is.
Do you get shooting stars or lightning flashes before the pain? Blind spots?
