No he did not. My Opthamologist recomended this Neurologist. I went to him for a few years. He would see me once a year (did the biofeedback he suggested). He gave me a quantity of 100 times 12. I had no idea about rebounds at the time. This was over 15 years ago. My son had looked on the internet and told me what he had read about Midrin and rebound headaches. (I had not used a computer at that time.)

I did not realize why my jaw would very often tighten badly as well. I was very upset with this doctor and stopped going to him. Went on withdrawal of all headache meds, including Bufferin and the Midrin. I had terrible headaches for months; but refused to use anything. Eventually, Imitrex came on the market. I had learned the hard way; but they are, as far as I am concerned, a miracle.
