fioricet? really the answer...does nothing

By OliviaLee Sunday, October 28, 2007

except put me to sleep.  Neurologist also prescribed phenergan which also makes me feel like a zombie.  I have a 1 year old and I need some relief.  I cannot take care of him on either and apparently he is TOTALLY against narcotics, well I am too but if its going to get rid of my headache in 30 minutes and let me go about my day, BRING IT ON!  Please tell me what your dr. prescribed besides phenergan and fioricet that helped, your answers will really help me so I can suggest them to my neurologist.  He probably thinks I am a pill seeker but the only things that have helped are lortab and tylenol w/ codine. (sp?)  Anyway, any advice or personal perspectives would be great!  Thanks for taking the time.

p.s.  Dr. FINALLY told me that I could quit taking the blood pressure meds that were making me throw up and have dirrhea, still have the dirrhea but what do you do?!?  Sorry if that was TMI

what meds? do they work???

Hi Olivia. Are you on a preventative, or is that what the bp med was? If so, did your dr replace it with something else? What about triptans, have you tried any of those? I don't know your whole story, so it is kinda hard to tell you what to look into. Are you seeing a migraine specialist?

 

I think I saw you once on the forum, so maybe you shold post this same question there and you will get more responses.

 

Good luck,

Sherry
