I know exactly how you feel. I have been passed around to so many doctors. My headaches have been so bad lately. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't take pain medicine because it interacts with my seizure medicine. The doctor wants me to try a new med (topamax) which is a preventative migraine medicine. It is supposed to have bad side effects. How has your pain been?
