Thanks I'll look it over.

It's not the prescription meds that have me bothered - it's the not being able to take the non prescription meds, to control the non migraine headaches ( that can trigger the migraines ).

I have always taken the minimum amount of perscrition pain meds, and the migraines are so random, that my origininal neurologist, thought that there was little chance of my becoming dependant on them ( I could go 1 1/2 -2 weeks without a problem then have a couple of migraines back to back ).

Literally I would take one pill, even when my script read "take two", and only if there was no effect in 45 min would I take a second ( which was rarely ). Many of the lessor migraines could even be brought under control with a massive amount of non prescription pain meds - it's just that it would be less likely to cause liver or kidney damage, by taking the prescription pain med instead. < shrug >
