what is a migraine medicine that does not make you depressed or tired?
I have been in and out of the doctor approx. 6 or 7 times in the past year for DAILY headaches and crucial migraines. Well my doctor prescribed me Topamax about 2 months ago, thinking MAYBE he really thought this would work for me. I have had severe depression, difficulty performing on exams in college this summer(and thats not normal- i study A LOT) and so tired that I cannot get out of the bed in the morning. I feel that my doctor is just throwing medications at me just to get him out of his hair, but im 23 years of age, and I am living with this condition that I dont even know an answer to. I just want to find an answer, and this helpless feeling is getting in the way of my everyday life! I just want to live like a normal person..without a pounding head and energetic like i used to be. I have tried the following medications: flexiril, imitrex, relpax, topamax, fiorecet
Hi Marja,
I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this and at such a young age.
I don't know that much about migraine meds but we do have a whole section here at Health Central that is specific to helping people with this debilitating condition.
Check out our migraine section at http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/
In the meantime, have you gone to a migraine specialist or clinic?
Good luck and let us know how you fare.
