Jim,
Many doctors won't risk prescribing imitrex for patients over 60, much less over 65 -- too strong for the heart, I guess.
Also, I hesitate to tell you this, but my headaches only started when I was 57 -- which means that I was a prime candidate to become chronic, which turns out to be the case.
So, not only no imitrex, but chronic as well!
