I have had Migraines since I was 16.  I am 39 now and they are getting worse!  I have been on Relpax and it used to work great, now its not working as well.  I am taking Propranolol for daily preventative-I just started this about a week ago.  I had one of the worst headaches yesterday,  my Dr switched me from the relpax to Zomig, I tried Zomig for the first time last night, it melted in my mouth like a baby aspirin and did nothing-the pain was a 10 and I vomited and got all hot and sweaty.  I finally got to bed about 2 am after thrashing around in bed with my head in a vice with my arms.  Then I got up at 6:30am to start my first day back to work, I am  a school nurse, so I was off the whole summer.  This whole month of August has been a nightmare.  About 10 headaches this month.  A combinatin of Migraines and Hormone Headaches.  I can't stand it anymore, I just want to feel good.  If I feel this sick while I am at work, the students are going to have to take care of me!!!! I am terrified of getting another headache,  I just want to feel good!
