A prospective observational cohort trial to study the effects of CGRP inhibitors (CGRPi) on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and bladder/pelvic pain. Candidates for either CGRPi or an alternative therapy for refractory migraines (OnabotulinumtoxinA (BoNTA) extracranial muscle injections) with baseline LUTS will be recruited. The investigators will assess LUTS and pelvic pain using validated symptom and quality-of-life questionnaires, pretreatment and at 3 months post-treatment follow-up, comparing change in symptoms based on treatment received.
Common urinary urgency syndromes may be related to over-activation of bladder afferent pathways involving CGRP signaling. CGRP (calcitonin gene related protein) is a neurotransmitter in afferent pathways also involved in central nociception and hypersensitization. CGRP-targeted therapies, approved for migraine treatment, have the potential to alleviate lower urinary tract symptoms, but these possible effects have not been studied in humans.

| changes in OAB symptoms | To prospectively compare changes in OAB symptoms after beginning CGRP inhibitor treatment for migraine, with changes after beginning local BoNTA injections for migraine as controls. OAB symptom change will be measured using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ) - Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (FLUTS). ICIQ-FLUTS questionnaire composite OAB score, including urgency, frequency, nocturia and urge incontinence domains (range: 0-16, higher scores indicate worse symptoms). Differences of 2-4 points with a standard deviation of 3-4 points were reported as significant in the literature. | 3 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| changes in bladder pain symptoms | To prospectively compare changes in bladder pain symptoms after beginning CGRP inhibitor treatment for migraine, with changes after beginning local BoNTA injections for migraine as controls. Bladder / pelvic pain symptom change will be measured using the Female Genitourinary Pain Index (GUPI). The score ranges from 0 to 39, quality of life question score from 0 to 6, and higher scores indicate worse symptoms. |

| rates of LUTS and LUTS-related quality of life (QoL) in patients with chronic refractory migraine. | To assess rates of LUTS (Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms) and LUTS-related quality of life (QoL) in patients with chronic refractory migraine. LUTS will be assessed using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ) - Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (FLUTS). This questionnaire has 12 symptoms questions scored 0 to 4, overall questionnaire score is 0 to 48 points, and higher scores indicate worse symptoms. Bladder / pelvic pain symptoms will be measured using the Female Genitourinary Pain Index (GUPI). The score ranges from 0 to 39, higher scores indicate worse symptoms. LUTS-related quality of life question, adopted from the international prostate symptom score (IPSS) or American Urological Association symptom index (AUASI), is scored 0 to 6 and a higher score indicated worse quality of life. | 3 months |
