what meds? do they work???

I was just wondering what meds you are on and do they work?  I am on a blood pressure medication (for 3 days) prescribed by my new neurologist and the made me sooo sick.  I am also on fioricet for pain, doesnt do a thing except make me sleepy and I cant be sleepy during the day because I have a 1 year old.  I have taken Midrin (quit working), Imitrix (basically knocked me out for a couple of hours) and the latest Maxalt which never really worked.  I am going to make a follow up appt. tomorrow (monday) and throw the blood pressure meds in the doctors face, no, not really but I have had a migraine since thursday and he doesnt call in narcotics.  All I am asking for is some tylenol 3, not oxycontin or something.  Oh, started going to a neurologist on Wed. after 10 years of migraines and many shots in my butt!  lol.  Any suggestions would help.  Thanks Alot!

i have had migraines for many years and have been on many meds. my dr has put me on topamax it is a seizure med but it has really worked for my migraines. it has also made me lose 20 pounds so far. wonderful med. the only draw back is stomach cramping but you have to titrate up real slow.. i hope this helps. from another migraine suffer
