Anyone else have luck BeKooool Soft Gel Sheets? Tamed my migraine last night. That plus 2 tabs of advil. Had a small cup of coffee with dinner. Might have been the cause. Anyway, it really helped.
You're welcome. Tried them the other night. Had a migraine that started around 12:30 AM. They really helped me.
Hi all
Am new to migraines. Am 42 years old and 3 months ago had first one. I thought I had heart attack. But things didn’t add up cause I didn’t had chest pain nor arm pain. Just slurred speech
Luckily I had morphine left over from kidney stone I had month before migraine attack. But morphine didn’t work. Had to take Advil and Tylenol too. Than I fall a sleep and when I woke up I was just tired but head was fine.
I went to fam doc for something else and at the end I mentioned headache and… read more
My one hemiplegic migraine was the scariest time of my life! What would happen to my 10 yr old? Who would care for him? Etc. Couldn’t even manage a gown for going to CT. Too sick w vertigo, confusion… read more
I am to the point that I am having to take Imetrex daily just to function. I have tried to go without it but the most I can go is three days before I have to finally give in and take it. I am concerned as to what it may be doing to my heart. I take the "Reddy" brand through CVS which does not seem to work as well as the name brand. Also, each time I take an Imetrex I have to chase it with two Tylenol or Advil.
Hi Kristyl
Sorry to hear about your challenges getting triptans. In the short term yes you can get triptans shipped to you from overseas, but it is a grey area and you have to find a willing shipper… read more
Good luck!
I have type 2 diabetes and take insulin. Because of the severity of my migraine pain I stopped taking it until I could get my pain to a manageable level. I have just been using diet to help with my diabetes but now my sugar levels are in the 200's so I took my insulin last night. My neurologist is trying to get me on Emaglity and I have just recently tried trigger shot injections, and have also tried nurtec tablets as well. But nothing is really working. I have also been diagnosed with having… read more
Thank you. Blessings to you
I found out about 10 years ago that red dye #40 was made only from petroleum oil. I made up my mind right then that I would not swallow anything with red dye #40 in it. The migraines I had for roughly 35 years went away and never returned! I would love for people to try not swallowing any red dye #40 and see if it helps them get rid of their migraine headaches.
Is everything red from this red dye #40?
Hello all. I am new to this page and newly diagnosised with migraines. My neurologist has tried me on a couple of different medications with none working so far. Topamax made me lose weight and cymbalta makes me sick. Neurologist said next thing to try is Depakote. Was wondering if anyone has had any success on this medication. Thank you in advance.
Tried it years ago for several months...did not help my migraines...
Hi. Bose is the brand I have. I got them as a Christmas gift one year and they are fantastic and comfortable to wear.
