Hi sorry to babble on again!!!!!!. I suffer with really bad migranes BUT because I'm going through PERI, they are becoming very regular now . First the doctor put me on propranolol in January (this year) and I was migrane free for months it was sheer bliss, BUT then the last 2 periods I have had they kicked back in again!?. I explained this to the receptionist at the doctors but she really wasn't bothered. Yesterday I had do a emergency perscription for more Sumpertription (I get 2pack each containing 6). I had my last lot 6th July !!!!!!!. I'm getting migranes every day just lately which I shouldn't really as I'm on propranolol . I thank god have an appointment this Monday to see a lady doctor the third doctor who will hopefully listen to me and hopefully help me. I have been peri for 8 months first it was mood swings now the every day symptoms of migranes I'm hoping she sees light for me and helpsme???!. How much of a slog is it for these doctors to see peri or a lady who is menopause ?!. I have gone onto long with my mood swings up and down I'm like an erratic banshee thanks for listening reading my piece .xxxxxx
I have suffered with migraines my periods started. (At 13, now 51 ) They are such a horrible thing to have. I used to take Syndol which really worked, but they have removed the muscle relaxer from this product and they no longer help. Hope your appointment goes well and the doctor can help. x
Hi Michelle, sorry to hear how rotten you are feeling. It really sounds like you are going through the mill.
I used to get regular migranes and still get the odd one. I suffered for years with paracetamol barely making any difference.
Then someone told me they used Migraleve (pink). It is just a regular mix of paracetamol and codine but with buclizine to stop nausea. I wish I'd discovered it YEARS ago. It does make a big difference. If I take one at the onset (fuzzy, flashing line stage) it often goes no further.
It might not work for you, but might be worth a try?
Sorry to hear that you are not doing well with your migraines. I will put you in my prayers
Just hang in there.
