> does that help?Thank You for your response!!I just mean I was only on it for 2 weeks last time and it worked for my migranes and it also seemed to start curbing my appetite. i have now been on it for 10 days and it does help a bit with migranes but I dont see a change in appetite at all maybe I am jumping the gun? I just heard before that the affects change if you get off and then return or maybe I didn't hear correctly as I do that from time to time!!!
