Sue Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Unfortunately my advice isn't the best, I live on Motrin 800's and have for the last at least ten years, my headaches come and go, but when they come it doesn't matter what I take I get no relief..Nauseau, dry crackers.((Hugs))Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenwclark Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'm so sorry. December seems awfully far away when you're feeling worse and worse. (I have an appointment with Dr. Grubb in January, and it seems like forever.) Does your neuro have a cancellation list? If you're flexible enough to go on short notice, it might be worth trying.Hang in there.Spike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurehope Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Jacquie,I'm so sorry to hear about your headache problems. While you are waiting for an appointment, have you tried to figure out what might be causing them?Is the diet you are on relatively free of additives? Are there any medications or supplements in your routine?Are your sleeping habits all right? How's the stress?I just thought I'd send healing thoughts your way and I hope you can get to the bottom of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie802 Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hi guys..I really have NO idea what could be causing me to feel this aweful. Maybe weather changes?? But I had this in Jan before so I doubt that. I know its going to take a while to get into the neuro because he is a new neuro for m e. I switched to one at the same Boston hosp as my EP/Cardio and Endo. I'm gonna call tomorrow and see what they can do, if anything, for me.

Jersey Girl Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 My heacaches were so bad that I took Neurontin,working up to about 400mg four times a day and slowly cutting back over a period of years. It was the only thing that helped, although it does make you a little tired, but it was worth it. If you tell the Doc or better yet, his nurse, that you are in pain, maybe they would see you sooner.

mom4cem Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hi,I hope you can get in sooner. When I was having the one-sided migraines I noticed a definite connection with the weather. When the barometric pressure was changing they would start.Hope you can get some relief until your appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bttrflyamby1981 Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Oh I know how awful you feel! I took excedrin migraine and it helped for a few years. Maybe you can try them? If you get them all the time though be carefull taking OTC meds. You don't want to end up with rebound headaches. You might want to call the doctors office and ask if you can go in if they have a cancelation? Some will call you and tell you, but sometimes they tell you to call everyday. Best of luck.

BEE Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I believe excedrin migraine was also suggested to me by a very valuable POTS frined..she is experienced with POTS many years. I would call SOMEONE and tell them you cannot rid yourself of these headaches amongst everything else. And see if they have any answers.Thinking of you Jacquie..Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
