- Last night I got a migraine and took Relpax at 8:15 and the pain went away but I was dizzy way into the night. I had a terrible time trying to fall asleep between being a little nauseous and a lot dizzy. I awakened at 2:30am and walked to the...

- I have finally reached the point, at least for now, where migraines control everything I do. I no longer have any guarantee that when I wake up I won't have a migraine. I used to get migraines every 10 days to two weeks and then they would last 3-4...
- Do you ever feel like you are always choosing between whether you want to put up with the pain or deal with the drugginess? I feel like my whole life is like that. I basically evaluate what my day looks like and make a judgment call.
- My neck gets really stiff when a migraine is coming on. Has anyone tried to use a muscle relaxer to prevent a migraine from coming on? It just seems like if I could get that area relaxed (and sometimes I can with heat) then I could revent the...
- Late last night I took a Sudafed because I felt like I was starting with a cold. I went to bed but could not sleep.I got up at 2am and checked the ingredients on Google and found that Sudafed has 25mg. of caffeine.NOW I wish I had known that...
- I saw an advertisement on TV for a law firm who represents people having problems with side effects from Topamax. Here is what it said -"Ortho-McNeil issued a warning regarding Topamax's tendency to cause eye disorders such as secondary angle...
- (I see a chiropractor twice a week for migraines. I started to realize that while I was driving I was tense, sending my neck into such tenseness, I would get a migraine.In the last month, I realized that I can't relax. Yesterday I was using the...
- I read that with the "mini" migraines one thing that often accompanies them is food cravings.On Thursday I was really having food cravings. I did nothing till I made brownies on Friday.Now, was I going to get a migraine anyway and the food cravings...
- Did someone recently mention that you can often have a reaction up to 72 hours after eating something?I made brownies on Friday night. I have eaten a few each day since then and a tiny piece today. I was amazed that I had no adverse effects or start...

- I was in to see my neurologist today. He always gives me freebies. Today I got 6 Frova and 2 Maxalt.I am just curious - does everyone's doctor give lots of freebies? If so, how many? (he did write down in my chart what he gave me).
- I was just prescribed this medication today. Has anyone else used it? What were the results? My doctor said there is only a 20% chance of any migraine preventions working.He, himself, gets migraines and says if you take 2 liters of Sprite, you can...
- I am so excited I just wanted to share. My insurance company has only allowed 4 Relpax per month for me. I appealed and was turned down. At that point I started taking whatever samples my neurologist gave me which included Frova and Maxalt. Then I...
