Migraine help please..

I suffer far too frequently with migraines, some of which have result in me being hospitalised. I get to the point where I can't open my eyes or communicate at all and quite literally think my head is going to explode.

But I've never had the droopy feeling that you're describing or the slurring of words. I do know that they effect different people differently though.

Definitely go and see your GP. If he does think that they are migraines they I would recommend Migraleve. If I catch a migraine early enough these work wonderfully for me (even though they are bright pink!)

Imigiran Recovery works wonders for me - you can buy it across the counter, but it is expensive at around £8 for 2 tablets. They should get you to complete a questionnaire and then give you a little card for future purchases. I get it on prescription now, so get 6 at a time. I'm now on a 1 a day preventative medication (in fact my follow up appointment is this afternoon), as I am getting them several times a months. Syndol sometimes helps too, as it makes me drowsy enough to sleep.

I started getting migraines when my heart medication was changed (never had them before, boy they are nasty aren't they?!). My doctor gave me migraleve to take, which worked really well. Changed heart medication again now, as they were causing daily migraines- you've not had a change in medication/diet that could have caused them to start? I'd see a doctor to be sure though.

Thank you all, am feeling better this morning. But im going to go to boots and get some tablets to keep in the cupboard just incase.
