Hi Chris,    I just want to warn you against medication overuse. I overused my abortive for 3-4 years before I realized the harm I was doing. I was in a horrible rebound pattern to the point where my abortive was actually causing the majority of the headaches I got. I ended up having to completely detox my body of the medication and turned to holistic treatments which helped me greatly. Definitely discuss this problem with your doctor before it continues. Don't accept more prescriptions as an answer (I had prescriptions for two different abortives so that I could switch off between them). That scenario turned out to be a short term solution and a long term battle for me.
