prevention meds and fatigue! ahhh

My doctor prescribed Prozac for me as a migraine preventative once.  Prozac tends to keep people awake, so it's usually taken in the morning...for me it was like my usual cup of coffee in the morning.  Of course, everyone does react differently and can feel drowsy on Prozac, but it is not a very common side effect. 

Have you ever tried taking any vitamins for an energy boost before?  Those can be useful when on meds that make you tired.

Best wishes,

Hi Pink,

My heart goes out to you.  I've tried most of the preventative meds, too, and not only do they make you tired, you eat more, trying to get energy.  I gained 25 pounds with most of them.

I'm taking 40 mg of Elavil at bedtime now.  I wake up feeling like a new woman!  The headaches come back during the day, so I'm thinking about trying Topamax, too, but I've got one problem licked.

I hope this works for you.

Cool!

Thanks, Pink.
