8yr Old Son - Thunderclap Headaches? Neurontin? Posted: 02-12-05 22:30pm
My 8 yr old son who has unusual headaches
has been told by neurologist that it may
be thunderclap headaches. He has been
prescribed neurontin to try. Not sure
about this med because of all the
controversial things I have read about it.
Ruled out migraines and has had a neg ct
w/o contrast. Kind of scared about this
new diagnosis because it sounds like more
testing should be done to rule out serious
problems. His headaches last 10-15min,
gets 1 - 2 daily. They have recently
gotten more intense and are always on the
left side of head, near temporal region.
Has anyone had their child on this med?
Diagnoised w/ this headache???? Help.
