Migraine. Help!

My wife had her surgery in May of last yr, doing great I might add. She has had a migraine since Monday night. She is sleeping now and if she wakes up again with we r headed to the emergency room. I know since she had surgery there r something's she can't take anymore. But what can she take to make it go away and/or ease up a bit. It's not fun to see someone you love hurtin like this. This is her husband and it's killing me to see how bad she is. HELP

I have no idea but wanted to say that I hope she feels better soon.

I'm sure the pharmacist will be able to tell you...

Good luck x

Your wife should really see her physician for a migraine which lasts more than a day.

I have frequequent migraines, and have a strong pain med for relief. There are many other options for treatment, but they are all prescription meds. Sometimes warm compresses on the forehead and back of the neck have helped me.

Just be certain to avoid any NASIDS, such as any medication which contains asperin or ibuprofen, as the risk for possible complications may be significant.

I hope she feels better fast...

My doctor gave me topamax for my headaches. It works ok but I had to stop taking it because of the side effects. I didn't like the dizziness and numbness in my feet. I've been told by others to ask about Botox injections. It's worth a try.
