Q: What pain meds can I use ? FOR STATUS MIGRAINE & STATUS AURA?

NSAIDS ARE BANNED DUE TO BLEEDING  & CODIENE CONSTIPATES & THEN MORE BLEEDING

 

I HAVE BEEN REFERRED TO A PAIN MANAGEMENT DOCTOR.

 

THE NEUROLOGIST ( ALSO MIGRAINE CERTIFIED) AND THE INTERNIST & GASTRO DOCTORS HAVE CONFLICTING IDEAS AND DRUGS.

 

WHAT ELSE IS LEFT TO TAKE FOR SEVERE PAIN?

 

I HAVE BEEN TO THE ER  AND THEY GAVE ME STRONGER CODIENE

 

ANY SUGGESTIONS OUT THERE?
