[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 319591, member: 3450"] Hi Guys, I am back from the dr. armed with some new medications. Don't worry, Susie, I didn't downplay it, in fact I burst into tears when the dr. walked in the examining room! Although, I was feeling some better by then, the Maxalt had finally kicked in. She is having me try Imitrex (thinks my body may have gotten too used to the Maxalt) but says there are others to try if that one doesn't work. I am also having a course of Prednisone to try to break the cycle (anti-inflammatory) and she prescribed Fiorinal for pain as well. I have a muscle relaxant too--my shoulder and neck muscles are really tight. So, I am going to take some medications and try to chill out now. I feel pretty good right now but as soon as the headache rears its ugly head I will try the Imitrex. You guys are so good to me, it really did help to know you were out there, plus you always have great advice! Thanks so much, Jane [/QUOTE]
