I wonder what causes headaches to occur over a period of time. I've had headaches for about a weak now,and the headache medicine doesn't work to well.
I know that this cycle of headaches will pass,but they are unpleasant,and I don't feel like doing anything but lying down. What kind of headache patterns do you guys,and gals have out there? No reply is necessary. You don't have to talk about it. BF |

I have a big problem with headaches and migraines. Taking Topamax regularly has helped a bit.
Sometimes, I get sort of a slew of them. They just don't stop and are daily. This usually involves needing an Imitrex injection to stop the pattern. Once in a while, I'll need to go to the ER for something stronger. I guess this is sort of a cycle...as you mentioned. I hope you get it stopped asap. Horrible. |

Migraines honestly run in my family. My mother, all three sisters.
And now me, my three sons, and for sure youngest grandson all have migraines. We all have different things that work, but at times only staying in bed for a long time is my answer. Also I used to take topamax also. And it was very helpful for me. One of my son's when his start to act up, its bad he ends up in either a doctor's office or clinic getting the injections. He had debilating headaches in school. Honestly it was bad enough he dropped out and went back to school later. Also my grandson his son. Wow, we have loves of problems with his headaches. He is now on Amtrypline which thankfully works most of the time. But you can tell when he misses more than one dosage. Also they both react to heat. Which the weather has just started heating up.

Steve,
Lots and lots of hugs. Call your doctor. There is a change that he/she can write a prescription for you. You also have the option of going to the ER. Mari |
