Verapamil has been working great. Two weeks basically PF (if you forget about the MSG triggered hit Saturday morning  ).
I miss 1 friggin 80mg dose of verapamil on Wednesday morning by 3 hours and it's been nothing but shadows and hits ever since. F'ing burning won't stop! F'ing tearing won't stop! My eyeball is in a vise! F'ing O2 only keeps it away for half an F'ing hour and it's back!!!!!
Had to resort to Naratriptan to get some work done. I hate triptans!!! Anyone else get throat pain/burning drinking coffee after a dose of triptans? Even the hot water in the shower hurt my skin!
AAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
There. Now I feel better.
No need to reply. I just needed to get that off my chest.

You ask questions and then tell us not to reply?
No, that never happened to me.

Now THAT I can relate to (especially the scalp), but I never connected it to the triptans.

Can't relate but you reminded me that I was 2 hours late on a verap dose. Thanks! The PF will return. I do not get any side affect from triptans unless its the chest/jaw tighness. Keep fighting

Yes! I totaly get this from Triptans! It also makes the sides of my neck burn, like that burning feeling you get in your muscles when you are working out.
Wow! I thought I was the only one 
Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Sorry for the mixed message. I was feeling whiny. I hate feeling whiny!
I'd love to tell you I'm feeling better today but it wouldn't be true. I have a call into my Neuro. Going to try and up the Verapamil again.
My BP is a steady 120/80 and my HR is holding at 55 so I still have some room to work with on that front.

Hope you find some relief Dennis, I am hoping that when the beast comes knocking on my door again that the 480mg verapamil does what it did with my last cycle, time will tell.
Best to you.

No pain in my throat, but my teeth get all sensitive to hot and cold. And my fingertips and toetips get sensitive to hot/cold too, so the hot water in the shower bothers me too. Or even from just washing my hands.

Can definately relate to the burning in the mouth and throat from hot drinks for a while after using imitrex. Also the sensitive skin in the shower.
