My Birthday Dr's appointment

By JimFallRiver Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Well I went to the Dr's yesterday April 15, 2008 and I talked to him about a few things. Getting a sleep study done, Trying new Preventatives, Trying new abortive's and rescue med's.

He told me that he is going to try to get me in to see a Migraine Neurologist in Boston with in the next month.

 

 My Dr. did increase my Topamax to 50 mg twice a day and he also gave me a prescription for Midrin but he said to only take it for my very worst headaches. I also asked him about DHE-45 and he said he has never proscribed it but would check into it incase the Midrin didn't work.

 He increased me Trazodone from 150 Mg a night to 300 Mg a night so hopefully that will help me sleep a little better.

 

He didn't want to send me for a sleep study until I was seen by the Neurologist in Boston.

 

 I also asked him about acupuncture but he didn't say anything. So I'm guessing that's a no.

 

As far as rescue drugs go I still have 25 Vicodin left but I'm not to keen on using them they don't do much for me.

 

So here is a complete list of the medication I take ever day and the amount.

 

IMITREX INJECTION 6 MG AS NEEDED

MIDRIN AS NEDED UPTO 5 A DAY

TOPAMAX 50 MG TWICE A DAY

TRAZODONE 300 MG AT BED

NORTRIPTYLINE 100 MG AT BED

ZONISAMIDE 300 MG AT BED

PROPRANOLOL 80 MG THREE TIMES A DAY

SIMVASTATIN 20 MG AT BED

GEODONE 60 MG AT BED

MIRTAZAPINE 30 MG AT BED

PANTOPRAZOL 40 MG AT BED

DOXAZOSIN MESYLATE 8 MG AT BED

VESICARE 10 MG AT BED

LUNESTA 3 MG AT BED

MULTI-VITAMIN IN A.M.

FIBER 12 GM IN A.M.

FISH OIL 3000 MG TWICE A DAY

 

The list is a little out of order but you get the idea.

 

 

My brain is scrambled like an egg, Sorry!
