2 days post-op with a migraine

All,

I had my surgery on Tuesday (everything went very well, btw)-- but I've had a migraine since last night.

I usually take Imitrex for my migraines, but I've been told not to take anything larger than a baby aspirin (imitrex pills are not big, but are bigger than a baby aspirin). Everything I can find on them says not to cut or crush.

I've got a call into my doctor about another pill, but I'm in pain now! :-)

Any suggestions?

What about getting the subcutaneous injection? That would be your best bet.

So sorry you're sick!

Thanks Jen... I ended up just trying the pill, and it went down fine (thank god), so I'm on the mend already.

I'm still going to look into the injection for the future.

I also had a very bad migraine the night of my surgery and they gave me liquid loratab, it worked pretty fast. It didn't make it go away 100% but made it much more tolerable. When I came home I cut up a percocet and took half of one cut into 4 pieces.

Hope your feeling better :eek:
