[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 204781, member: 1233"] Hi all. Last I knew, facial swelling could show problems when combined with migraines. When I first started having that I ended up with an MRI, Xrays, all sorts of tests, etc..... Jess has had some amazing facial swelling with her migraines. She is on day 4 of this migraine. She is drinking lots of water (at least when I see her she is), eating well, avoiding triggers, and just seems to be having real problems with this. We ARE going to the doctor today to see about the migraines. She can't take imitrex, and you can only take 5 midrin in a WEEK. They help for an hour or three, but then stop working. I am going to ask the doctor what we can do for prevention. I am hoping to get an AFTERNOON appointment so that I have time to get some answers from her neuro. He is great, but won't be able to get us in for quite a while (usually is booked several months out - but worth the wait). I just want to know if a preventative would cause problems for her. Anyone have experience with the facial swelling/migraine combo in a child? Thanks! Susie [/QUOTE]
