Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

It's officially been ONE YEAR since I've had a migraine!!!!

Hope I'm not jinxing myself now , I'm just SO happy.
It's a good day.

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

That's great! DH gets them sometimes and they're debilitating, so I know how happy you must be that yours are staying away!

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

Caffeine they say DOES help.
I have to chalk mine up to good ol' prescription drugs.

That will do it! I only get them when I haven't had any caffeine. I'm a big Diet Coke drinker.

I've got my Big Gulp right next to me

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

I woke up with one

And caffiene can sometimes TRIGGER mine!

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

Same here re: caffeine. It actually makes mine worse most times......

But congrats, Andrea! As a fellow migraine sufferer, I'm sure that being 'migraine-free' for a year feels fantastic!

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

I had one the other day...

Thats great!!! I haven't had one in a few months.
What prescript are you taking? I'm on Furicet (sp?) which works really well!

---

I take Topamax. It's actually an epilepsy med that's been found to help migraines (I don't have epilepsy).
I know some people have had not-so-good experiences w/ it, but I've had nothing but a positive outcome w/ no side effects. (I'm on a super low dosage).
I hear Furicet is great as well.
Yay Drugs! JK.

i just had a migraine last week at work its painful! maybe i should start drinking coffee at work again i stopped drinking coffee during the week.

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

that's great! I get them, not too often though, so imitrex has worked for me. My mom has been getting them for years and they never seem to get better

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

That is wonderful!!!!! I don't get them as often as I used to, but even a couple times a year stinks!!!

Re: Speaking of Migraines, Just Have to Share Good News...

That's great news!!
