But I can't exercise because they set off my migraines. It's vicious circle and I need to break it somehow. Once I get the migraines under control and can start exercising again I may be able to taper off the meds. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

Post #430,859 by malraux 9/19/19 4:22:04 PM 9/19/19 4:24:05 PM Reply	Haven't tried anything yet. She gave me 3 options to research: nortriptyline (antidepressant), topiramate (antiseizure), and propranolol (blood pressure) Imitrex is for treatment after you know it's coming on. I get them 1-2 times a day and am more suited for a prophylactic than an acute treatment. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

Post #430,866 by crazy 9/19/19 8:51:13 PM 9/19/19 8:51:13 PM Reply	Understood In the old days I'd get a possible aura and pop an ergotamine. Which only worked if caught REALLY early. Then imitrex injectable came out. Side effects were a roaring fire in your chest for 30 seconds, and migraine got erased. No matter how deep I was into it. Nowadays they have the tablet, works in about 20 minutes, no side effect. I suggest you get a script for it to keep handy, for the moment the prophylactic fails.

And the ones I get are typically pretty low-grade: no real headache, minor aura. The problem is that 1-2 a day means I'm in constant postdrome and always exhausted and fuzzy.
