[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 283549, member: 1233"] I totally get what you are saying. I get very POd when the docs tell us Jessie needs to "just walk it off" when her knee is swollen up more than twice what the other knee is. Or when her back is so incredibly tight with knots that it hurts her to even gently rub them. (I have tried all sorts of massages, and finally figured out a routine that seems to help IF she is not too tender to be touched.) The docs don't see her wake up with tears in her eyes, or watch her do anything with that set to her jaw that means it is taking up all of her resources to pretend to enjoy anything through the pain. Our kids do not choose this stuff. They also do not enjoy it. You may find that the lexapro helps the headaches. Some people respond to it as a migraine preventative. [/QUOTE]
