Re: Finding things extremely hard going,

[Guest guest]

I do not get those kind of headaches. However when my pain gets really bad, I

get pain-related vomiting. I have anti-nausea meds that help.

Hang in there. I'm having a bad day too. But I know things will get better for

both of us very soon.

Headaches have many causes and there are many types, What you are describing

could be migraine or maybe cluster headaches. Any head pain that is as severe

as you are having should be evaluated by a neurologist. Ruling out the worst

causes and getting to the treatment that is suited for you.

I hope you will demand help from your doctor. You'll feel better when this is

no longer a mystery.

If these headaches are new to you, all the more reason not to waste time.

You sound. Like you may have a migraine. I developed them after menopause. They

need migraine meds to go away like imitrex. My worst migraine lasted 10 days

and no amount of medication could deal with it.

back with a worst one. Has anyone else had these? I have tried many pain

killers that don't work or knock me out and I wake with same amount of pain as I

went to sleep with.

Any ideas? I have tried hobbies to try and concentrate on but I get bored of

them pretty quick.

Hello Ms Donna~Marie,

Those headaches you describe are definitely Migraines.I get the exact same

headache with the nausea and vomiting.I also get those halo's,when I see them

getting bigger it is then that I take the Rel-pax.

Have you tried Rel-pax yet? It works wonders for me, kills the migraine right

away and it keeps it away too. These pills are very expensive, the only

drawback.

I have had migraines since I hit puberty, and it does sound like you are having

migraines. Through trial and error and many years of trying hundreds of meds, we

finally found Maxalt. It is a miracle for me, as Imitrex and all the " new

migraine cures " worked like water for me. Zomig also helped, but the Maxalt I

could take on duty (I was a 911 street paramedic working 24 hr. shifts before my

injury) and it doesn't make you drowsy, you don't even have to lie down,

although it works faster if you can lie down 10 - 15 minutes. Within 20 minutes

I am as good as new, without missing a beat.

It is also good for me now with all the narcotics I take, the Maxalt does not

exacerbate the effects of those. All it does is get rid of the migraine!! They

come in a small 10mg pills you swallow, but I get the Maxalt-MLT (MLT for

'melt'), they dissolve on or under your tongue and enter the bloodstream faster,

and you don't need water if you don't have immediate access to it. The taste is

very tolerable, pepperminty, but not too strong.

So far that's the only thing that works for me, but I must warn you, if you

don't have insurance or an Rx plan, they are not cheap. But the work so well for

me I would sell everything I on to keep them on hand. Luckily, Medicare and most

insurances cover it.

Good luck, I hope you find relief soon, my thoughts are with you and sending

healing energies your way! I know the torture you are enduring and wish it gone

from you now! Peace to you!
