Anecdotally, higher doses result in less pain for me, too. But, I’d caution anyone who was chronic migraines, or any sort of chronic pain, to limit themselves to a few standard doses a week. My doctors kept telling me that I likely had Medication overuse headaches, and I kept going “no way, I don’t take that much, and I’ve had regular headaches before taking my current regiment.” Finally, after years of prompting, I toughed out three weeks with no medication and my severe migraines were reduced in duration afterwards. Please be very careful of this slippery slope.
