Meg?

[AmyM]

Where is Meg? Maybe I just haven't been around at the right times, but it seems like I haven't seen her on the board here in a while. None of my business but I just was hoping she is doing great!

Hey I haven't been around the last couple days much..was busy this weekend with family stuff (fun though woot) and today I had a migraine from beyond so was in bed all day but I was around yesterday and I hope to be around tomorrow hehe

TY for asking about me!

[joelsgirl]

I slept all day but for about 5 hours yesterday am-afternoon-evening (had a dr appt prescheduled to the headache with my neuro for a checkup..so he fixed me up while I was there with a few shots, then my dd had a chorus concert, and I peeked online for about an hour last night after i got ev1 in bed..)

I woke up this am a little hungoverish but I feel pretty good I think this one was a mix of things..haven't been eating really well (as in healthy) and a mix of no caffeine didn't help. Thankfully since starting Topamax many years ago these are few and far between....but wow when they come they are bad!

I totally hear ya! I miss taking Topomax. I stopped last year cause my neuro said you shouldn't be on it too long. How long have you been taking it? I had been taking it 2 years until I stopped and am thinking I'm gonna make another appt to go back on it.

I have only had a shot once for a migraine and that was at the ER. But last week I had one that lasted 8 days and I thought I was gonna die!

Glad you are feeling better!

I've been on it for almost 5 years (tried Elavil and Depakote before Topamax) and taken it thru 2 pregnancies. I did go of it for a few months and took Inderal bt it didn't help nearly as much (although it kept my BP down lol) My neuro sees me every 6 months and as long as my liver enzymes and tests come back ok he says I can stay on it.

Cool! Thanks Meg! I've never had my liver tested so that may be my suggestion!

Glad you're feeling better Meg. I've had a headache off and on for 3 days now. In the bed a few hours yesterday and today.....migraines suck. I know how you feel, it is NOT fun.
