Hi K, I have started my regime of suppliments. Kinda feels like I'm taking a couple meals worth of suppliments each day. I've been doing this for 5 full weeks now. So far I have noticed: The...
Hi everyone! It's been a while since i've been on and posted anything let alone read anything. My heartfelt care and concern to all of you riding the migraine rollercoaster. I've been in my own...
Hi Blondie, Sorry to hear your getting migraines on top of your ibs. No fun at all I'm sure. 3 - 6 hour migraine episodes are quite common. Mine can last anywhere from 15 minutes to all day long for...
In my experience Dr's won't give test results over the phone good or bad. Not that I think this will help you relax much. My fingers will be crossed for you and many prayers said for your daughter,...
Hi Jen, I'm not on Topomax at the moment. It is frequently used to treat migraines but originally used as an anti-epileptic medication. I've heard some good feedback on it. I'm sure you'll get quite...
Movement associated/induced migraine. I cannot jog or do high impact sports for the same reason. In fact sometimes just any type of physical exertion can trigger one. There is quite a few references...
Thanks Sarah and Anne for your quick reply's. I wasn't sure if my doc was out to lunch or the pharmacist. I've called and talked to the pharmacist and he reassured me that it's safe. Especially since...
My doctor has now added propanolol 40mg/day to my med regime. I'm already on Celexa and Amitryptiline (only 10mg). I noticed on the patient information for the propanolol it says to talk with your...
Yet another one of my triggers too is barometric pressure. I had nooooo idea about the magnesium. Very interesting. Right now i'm taking the recommended dosage of magnesium. Hmmm...food for thought....
Hi everyone, me again! Has anyone heard of Hormone Balancing to treat Migraine disease? In my own research so far, I've found that one type of Migraine I get is from hormone imbalances. But have not...
Whew!!! Thought I was loosing it there for a bit. No problem on yanking the thread. I totally agree that it was getting way off. I don't think there is anything to forgive. You're just doing you job...

OMG yes!! you most definately can get migraines without the pain. There is quite a bit of info on the web if you google migraine's or painless migraines or headacheless migraines. I get a variety of...
Hi there, I'm on celexa now and started about 6 months ago. The first two months were pretty tiring. I was just tired all the time. But other than that i've had no other side effects. It's worked...
Hey Buster!!! Your really missed in the chat rooms. I can't wait till your back on your feet and makin' us smile. Take care of yourself....
I take care of a girl with epilepsy. Her "aura's" before a seizure are almost identical to my "aura's" before a migraine. I thought I read somewhere that it's not uncommon for persons with migraine...
I've been doing a bit of research on Noni juice. I can't find anything harmful regarding it. To buy it online is really expensive. Costco is selling it for a fraction of the cost. I'm going to buy it...
Hi crohndi, I have this all the time. It's part of my aura. I'm not sure if you're experiencing the same thing. But it feels like my brain is encased in jello or something. Extremely difficult to...
I have a friend who takes it for parkinsons and it helps with her tremors but doesn't get rid of it. Anyway, she swears by it and has been drinking in for 2 years now. But, I've never heard of it...

Thanks so much for your vent. I felt like screaming myself today. 2 weeks solid of migraines. Just played Easter bunny for my two little kidlets. Now I'm sitting in my medicated haze. I feel...
The triptan I take is Zomig. If I take the rapid melt version I get the worst sore throat. I still get a sore throat with the regular but not nearly as bad. My doc is suggesting the Zomig nasal...
I have the same problem. I saw my chiropractor and it helps quite often. Usually my jaw has misaligned. I've heard of the the low iron as well. But never for teeth grinding, but for ice eating....
