      Treatments

      Amerge Not Working
      Was on this medication about 6 year ago and it just did nothing for me. Another person I know took one tab daily and it worked well for her.
      Aspirin Working / Worked
      I combine 2 Advil with my Imetrix meds and it works well
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      I had blood tests done for food allergies and found I was allergic to gluten. Went on gluten free diet for 6 months - no real results. I will try yeast free diet at start of new year - 1/09
      Excedrin Working / Worked
      It may work well, but another rebound medication. I was taking 6 - 8 tabs a day. Not a good med. - but sometimes you have to do what you have to do function! I use this when I am running low on my Imetrix meds.
      Fiorinol Not Working
      Watch out! This drug is a big rebound headache drug! I was up to taking 50 a month - not a good thing!
      Imitrex Working / Worked
      Works great! I use it as an abortive combined with 2 advil.
      Magnesium Working / Worked
      I have tried but did not work. This also gave me a lot of gas and diarrhea
      Maxalt Somewhat Helpful
      It worked for awhile, but then I think my body got used to it. It made me sleepy
      Midrin Not Working
      Was prescribed this in college and it put me to sleep during class and on the bus to and from the school.
      Relpax Not Working
      Did not work for me
      Topamax Not Working
      Read my comment on the site dated 12/25/08
      Zomig Not Working
      This drug threw me for a loop. Made my head feel like I was "swimming", was sleepy; not good for me.

    • Open Scoliosis

      Treatments

      Brace Working / Worked
      Wore a brace or 21/2 years in high school. Not the best time to wear something like that. It did not work so I went one to have surgery
      Harrington Rods Working / Worked
      My rod goes from T4-L4. I had my surgery in 1979 and have no problems so far. After reading this site and doing some research I think I am showing signs of "flat back" syndrome. My lower, mostly muscular I think, gives me problems when I use that part of my body. I wonder if it takes a lot of the pressure that the rest of my back does not because it is fused together.
