Guest guest Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Yes, ankle edema is a problem as well. I toughed out the headache issue and although occasionally I do still have one but it is not as bad as the pain of the sphincter spasms! I tried Levsin a couple of times in the past and it didn't do anything for my spasms. Another thing that I have failed to mention, I do have nitroglycerine tabs to put under my tounge when I have a really bad spasm. I have only taken 3 since I received my script back a little over a month ago. It really does work!! The spasm ceases almost immediately BUT the side effect with Nitro is also headache. That is also immediate as well. I usually take a couple of tylenol and it's gone. I think the Nitro works the same way as Procardia, to reduce the pressure. Whew! Can't imagine why I forgot to mention this before. Zoie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
