Joyce,

Terribly sorry to hear about your problem with the headache. I

sincerely hope it is coincidental. The xolair web site does

indicate that headache was a common side-effect of the medication

(15% of patients) but it doesn't, of course, indicate severity. I

hope the problem is temporary.

Joyce,

A high probability says your headaches are coincindental. I take

darvocet 2 times daily as needed for neck pain stemming from having C-

4 and C-5 fused together back in 1990. It kicks my headaches and neck

pain in a flash! I don't have any problems taking Darvocet and

working. It just takes away my pain

Hope you get better soon,
