Default replies... late ;-)

Hi Mrs. D,

Treximet is the only migraine drug I've been on since this whole thing started. It has 85mg of Sumatriptan and 500mg Naproxen Sodium. The neurologist said that the heart attack feeling is a tissue reaction to the medication and wasn't harmful. I barely feel it or notice it anymore. It helps my migraines so much, I would be afraid to switch to anything else. Maybe I will ask my neuro if I could step it down? I'm not sure. Thanks for that info though, I didn't even look at the drug to see what it was composed of. Maybe I'm too trusting to my neuro.

My migraines are in my neck and go up the back of my head on both sides all the way around to the front and sides.


MRH4,

I took a biofeedback class in college that was really helpful for me then. I'm going to ask my doc about it. I also want to try neuro-psychological testing. Thanks for the info!



I'm trying to get as much rest as I can and trying not to be involved in stressful situations. My sister's wedding is Saturday, and I'm the maid of honor.... so I'm trying to prepare myself. My neuro said I can take 2 Nuvigil spaced apart during the day to help battle the fatigue if I need it on that day. Please pray for me you guys!

I'm really happy to say that I have an amazing husband who lets me get as much rest as I can, so the week after will be a great recovery time. I'm going to try and leave the wedding early, and not over do it. Hopefully!
