Digest Number 364
Hi all, As an adult I was told back in ' 91 that my daily chronic migraine/tension H/A'swould subside with menopause. I had suddenly stopped having periods when I was 42 in '88. I was not on hrt till '95. My H/A's continue...Same old same old.. I did have them as a child ,awful migraines 2 or 3 times a year.. A Pain Dr. took me off all my medicines for 3 months swearing to me that I would be H/A free at then end of those 3 months. NEVER HAPPENED !! Of course he believed I was having rebounds caused by my pain medicine.. I am having a difficult time at this moment typing and thinking as my brain is in a fog. My R.eye and temple are hurting...Sometimes I explain the feeling like tremors - sharp hot jabs to my eyes and temples with this real strange feeling to my "brain" I think I have tried MOST of the preventatives out there. Some helped for a short while. I guess I need to go take another pain pill..I am so frustrated .... Heart to Heart Head to Head, Karen
