I Can’t Bear Migraines Pain Anymore! Posted: 03-17-07 02:11am
I am almost 28 and haven't suffered with
migraines long, other than menstrual
migraines. But I just have sort of dealt
with them. Recently I have been getting
migraines more often. Even more recently I
got a migraine that I have had for 8 days
now. It pretty much left me debilitative.
The doc prescribed me some Imitrex which
did nothing. Then I got a shot of De-moral
and Phenergan, which let me sleep
peacefully and wake up with a miagraine
still. He gave me some samples of Relpax,
which I dug into and helped, but the price
tag is so high, I am not sure I can depend
on that daily. He also put me on 25 mg of
topamax to help prevent them. So far I
still have a migraine and am at my wits
end. I guess I am scared because my mother
has gotten a migraine every day for as
long as she can remember. I’ve seen her
in pain. I can’t even think of having
that pain. I just want to get rid of it.
Just a tip, a lot of sufferers have a
problem with sensitivity to the 3 C's -
Cheese, Chocolate and Citrus!!! While your
head is so bad, it may well be worth
cutting these out of your diet for a while
to see if there is any difference before
gradually introducing them again and
noting any changes!! Meanwhile you can try
using Migravent Product. I am using since
last week, its good. I think they have a
site by same name migravent.
Keep well

When my son was 15, he had some of the
worst migraines ever. He went to 3
different doctors who prescribed 3
different medicines that never worked. One
doctor even said he had a brain tumor
until the MRI showed nothing.
Then a friend suggested I take him to a
chiropractor. The chiropractor xrayed his
neck and saw a curvature that was pinching
nerves. After about 2 weeks of treatment,
which included popping his neck, his
headaches greatly diminished. After about
3 months, he was almost totally without
headaches. Maybe this will help you, too.
Good Luck.

I suffer from migraines aswell.
I used to take painkillers, even though
they only helped the smaller migraines.
Then my mom said I was addicted and now I
can't take any pain killers for my
migraines.
It also seems that now-a-days I only
pretend to get migraines for attention,
according to my mom.
So yah, I feel for you.
I heard migraines are up there on the pain
factor with birth giving? Heh, I wonder if
that is true.
