My doctor has confirmed that I'm premenapausable, I have known this however for the last 10 months. I take Pronanolol Daily and Sumpertription for when a migrane attack happens. Them who suffer with migranes like me please I have a question: my migranes I'm experiencing a lot more and more frequent obviously because I'm peri and the body is all over the place, is it natural to get more migranes? Is there anything I can or should be given off the doctor to help me with the suffering? Any advise please?!!.
I'm the same but please don't let them put you on gabapentin to prevent them it's an ok drug while on it but evil to come off its made me I'll with anxiety now on anti depressants and tranquilisers x
Dear Michelle I have never suffered migraines all my life but going in to peri i kept having the migraine auras, at first i wondered what the hell they were. Plus on the odd occasion the odd pain over mh eyes but not full blown migraine. On average i was having these auras about four or five times a month. I believe the hormone inbalances caused these. Because mine were mainly auras i didnt really take much for them but i believe there are medications for migraine including botox i believe! X
I am 45 and when I was younger (30ish) I used to have full blown migraines with aura.
In January I started getting migraines again but they were just the aura without the pain and only in my left eye. I have had quite a few of these and they have left my eye with floaters now, which disturb my vision.
About 3 weeks ago I had my first full migraine in 15 years and then had another one 2 days later. My doctor wants to put me on betablockers but I am scared of the side effects. I read something online about the importance of sodium in your diet and the connection with migraine, so at the moment I am concentrating on keeping those levels up. Touch wood I have been ok this week. I do beleive hormone levels are to blame. I wish you well.
Hi, thanks for that tip I'll try and remember that name!!. I'm going to try to see a doctor next week, had another awful migrane again today all day, and at work!!. There must be somthing for us that suffer like this?!.
If your doc offers you gabapentin as a preventative please think about it they are an evil drug to come off
Sarah, many thanks for your advice. I have been online looking at this product DEAR GOD I shall NOT take this drug, many thanks for the tip. It's widely used in Epilepsy. So it must be a powerful drug? Bless.
