>>>>>>>>U need a guide! I'm available!! Where are we going?
-Regarding the Migraines. I had 15 a month. I was put on Topomax 400 mg. for seizures and Fosomax during
-that time
And Then I had Relpax for the migraine punch so that I wouldn't end up in the ER. They are all expensive. My insurance paid for them. I was down to headaches just during - that time. Or hormonal headaches.
When I went in the hospital a month ago, my insurance was cancelled!!!!! So I decided no more pills. I couldn't take anything or keep it down anyway, so 9 days without them before I ended up in the ER and for 2 weeks after? I think I'm allergic to (don't laugh) cheese. I was on the BRAT diet for a week and then could add yogurt and other stuff until I was well enough to start taking all the medications again. (I'm on 12) or...was. I thought at first it was milk, because they put so many hormones in the cows. Then I thought it was yogurt. Still a dairy. But I've noticed if I eat cheese on anything....BLAMO instant creeping migraine. From the light fairies to the ice bag.
Tension gives me a migraine too, but I think some of the medications they had me on CAUSED the migraines. Interestingly enough - I'm now only taking 2 medications. For pre-diabetes, and an occasional Tylenol. It could be that my medications were "in" my system and that I'm completely full of cheese my ownself. But what if...?
I gave up, PaxilCR, caffeine, and sugar plus a bunch of other medications and cold turkey too. I do NOT recommend trying to get off Paxil without stepping down. It almost killed me. No joke. But I am rich in spirit and poor in pocket and no insurance.
I started keeping a migraine diary too. Apparenlty I am a vampire and detest sunshine days. It truly has something to do with the weather. Overcast days I've never had a headache. Odd huh?
We're all nothing but a bunch of chemicals held together with skin and heaven only knows what they are putting in our food.
Worth a try - especially at your young age. Or any age for that matter.
