Migraine anyone?



Recommended Posts

I suffer from Migraine for many years. My mom does also. I was on a medication before imitrex that was paid by insurance but its now no longer cover.

I have told my doctor about this other medication but he flat out said no & even try to get the insurance to cover the medication I was on before & they refuse to cover it.

I can't take medication with aspirin after surgery. I notice it gives me side affects. I used to take aleve & Advil & even Advil for migraine but now I can't take none of that.

Is there anything you guys take that helps with migraine?

I can't live like this. Thanks

Check the website for your prescription med. Most have patient assistance programs for those who cannot afford their meds.

Mami, I have a brain disorder that gives me horrible migraines.. With my disorder it is very common for OTC meds to be ineffective, my neurologist has me on liquid Vicodin for my Migraines and also an anti Migraine med called propranolol. I take it twice a day and I have seen a difference in the amount of migraines I get. Also, Imitrex does come in a generic now that your insurance should pay for. It's called Sumatriptan. Other than that, I just have to push through the migraines and at times it takes all I have to power through them!

The only thing they have here is medicaid for people that don't have a lot of income. Medicaid doesn't cover everything either. So i'm ass out at this moment.

I will go back to my doctor and see if there is another medication that I can take that is cover by insurance. I been with a migraine since Friday. It's now Sunday. I been taking the tylenol PM but since it has sleep aid to it. It just makes me sleep it off. I still have it in my head :(

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
