- I'm new to this group but my heart is breaking. My 16 year old cat had to be put down an hour ago. Im so sad and I hate this part of life. I have lupus and he always knew when I wasn't feeling well and he always comforted me. I feel so empty. I have...
- Many of my migraines are triggered by my chronic sinus infections. I'm considering doing the balloon surgery. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.
- Hey all. I need some help/advice/opinions. I'm at my wits end with these migraines. They just seem to be getting worse and I'm having only a few pain free days a month now...I'm sure you understand. My neurologist has nothing more to offer, the...
- After finding out that there's no way I can get botox, I'm pretty down. Not only do I have migraines averaging 15 a month, but I also have lupus and other health issues. I'm feeling kind of desperate. Has anyone had experience with headache clinics,...
- Has anyone ever tried occipital nerve blocks for migraines? I don't know anything about them but someone suggested it and I wondered if any of you have had experience with it. Thanks.
- Are there many/any people who have been approved for SSD due to migraines? I know it's difficult to get approved, but was wondering if anyone could share their experience. Thanks!
- I wish medical marijuana was legal in my state. From what I hear from other people, it can really help, not only with the pain but also some of the other symptoms that I have from various illnesses. Insomnia, appetite, etc. Five minutes up the road...
- I'm on my way to my pain doc. I go every four months to see him. I truly hate going because unfortunately with the way things are today, those of us who are in legitimate pain and need these meds to function, are seen too often as drug seekers. I...
- I find that for a day or two after a migraine, I have what feels like a migraine hangover. Does anyone else experience this? I feel tired, sluggish, somewhat disoriented, and my mood is just blah. Not to mention the catching up I have to do because...
- I need some help. I am on a very low dose of prednisone, and have been for years. My doctor told me that she's no longer comfortable prescribing it. She's my PCP, I am currently not seeing a rheumie. She has been prescribing the pred and placquenil...
- Does anyone have gastrointestinal problems along with the lupus? I have really been having a hard time lately with all kinds of stomach issues...nausea, abdominal pain, constipation and occasional diarrhea. And bloating too. I've had it before,...
- I have had about a 50% reduction in my migraines since I started taking riboflavin on a consistent basis. From up to 14 days a month lasting 2-3 days to what I am having now literally feels llike a miracle to me. The severity of them has also...
- Does anyone know why sinus infections trigger migraines? Unfortunately I have chronic sinus infections, and the migraines from them are horrible.
- Has anyone heard of using riboflavin for migraines? I started taking it and noticed a reduction in the number of migraines. I then stopped it (ran out and didn't get more for a while), and the headaches came back. I wasn't sure if it had really...
- I'm assuming that a rebound headache is because you've taken too many meds for your migraine, right? Can you get them from taking an imitrex injection...once a day but for like six days in a row? And how do you stop that cycle? I think that's...
