[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 429985, member: 7083"] I've had a massage twice in my life. I don't know what kind they were, but it wasn't the pleasant, relaxing experience everyone talks about. LOL I didn't realize then that it was because of my pain issues. I need to look into it more because I know there is more gentle massage that is done. I don't have anything to stop a migraine once it starts, so I should get something for that. difficult child was given something called Maxalt (sp?). And I was just thinking that she got something and I've had daily headaches and frequent migraines for years and I don't have anything. But then I realized that they've been part of my life for so long that I usually don't mention them to the doctor. The only reason I was put on Celebrex for migraines is because my brain MRI showed "subtle white matter changes", which can be indicative of a lot of things, one of them being chronic migraines - which fit. So, I think maybe I'll stick to the Celebrex because it has helped and get something for when I get a migraine anyway. Duh. Don't know why I didn't think of that. I remember you talking about Flova, Janet. I can't get this one under control. My doctor is out until next week. I'll probably go to the ER later and get a toradol shot. If I go now, I'll just wait for several hours. I'll go late when there's no one there. Can't deal with noise. [/QUOTE]
