Title: Migraine sufferers Post by amen on Feb 25th, 2004, 2:57pm Hello, I have a question for migraine sufferers. I know this is not a migraine site, but I also know that many of you suffer both. My sister in-law has been having migraines pretty bad lately. This last one has lasted 4 days. Today she is throwing up. What should she take??? Any info would be great. Thanks Andrea |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Belle on Feb 25th, 2004, 3:04pm Hey there Andrea! My mother suffers from horrific migraine's too and they usually last 3 days or so if untreated. Nothing over the counter works for her. My dad will take her down to the hosptital to get a shot of demerol and graval(sp?) in the but and she usually feels relief within mins or so. Hope she feels better soon. Belle ::) |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by amen on Feb 25th, 2004, 3:10pm Thanks guys! She went to the Dr. today and he gave here Immitrex. the problem is that she is afraid to take it because the Dr. told her it could make her sick and since she is already sick, she doesn't want to waste it. She is not sure how much longer she will have insurance. I told her, she is probably sick because of the migraine and its worth a try. I feel horrible for her. She is also my babysitter. She is dealing with this and has my 2 and 4 year old following her around and wanting to "take care of her". Will the Immitrex make her sick? Andrea |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by pubgirl on Feb 25th, 2004, 4:11pm I use the same stuff as I use for my Ch now (makes life easier and it works) Imigran, Zomig, 02 (not all together of course) Wendy |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Woobie on Feb 25th, 2004, 4:53pm she should go to the ER and get one of those shots that make you stop throwing up - then take the imitrex. You're right - there's NO point taking it until she stops getting sick. But, WHY would the doctor give her imitrex, and not give her something to stop the vomiting..... geesh. You said she wont have her insurance much longer.... so that means she STILL has it?? If so, get her to the ER and get that shot.. 4 days is enough. hope she feels better Tina |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Lizzie2 on Feb 25th, 2004, 5:16pm Migraines that last longer than 72 hours need some kind of treatment because there are possibly some dangerous consequences to an intractable migraine. However, I've had a migraine for over 3 years...some intractable migraines just won't budge. Imitrex for some migraineurs is a bad med because the half-life of imitrex is short, and the relapse rate for the migraine headache can be high for many people. Other triptans are longer acting...drawing a blank on which ones act the longest, but I know that frova is one. DHE is very effective for migraine. Narcotics really only mask the pain. If the migraine is gone after the narcotics wear off, it is generally because the migraine has run its course. Otherwise when the narcs wear off, the migraine will be back. I use thorazine and DHE as migraine abortives, and I take ultracet for pain (which is a combo of muscle relaxant and acetaminophen). My new doctor wants to eventually find me a combination of a NSAID, a triptan, and an anti-nausea. The anti nausea's most used for migraine are phenergan, compazine, and zofran. It is often very standard for migraineurs to get a combo shot of pain-killer and anti-nausea if they go to the ER. I've got tons of info if you want more. Also a helpful website is: http://headaches.about.com It is for all headache types, but there is TONS of info on migraine there. Let me know if you want more info. Hugz, Lizzie :) |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Lizzie2 on Feb 26th, 2004, 7:01am Pink, I enjoyed your posts! :) on 02/25/04 at 14:57:03, amen wrote:
First off...Andrea stated that she knows this isn't a migraine site, but she knows that some of us suffer from both. Well...that's true...MANY of us suffer from both. I don't see what the problem is with her request. Also, she's asking for information from people she trusts. Sometimes it is hard to jump right in on another message board and ask for help when you haven't really spent a lot of time reading and learning what it's like there. And then there's this issue of why you guys hate people with migraines so much. If you don't, at least know that that is the image you are putting across. Constantly calling them "meegraines" and blasting to hell anyone who mentions them. I'm aware that there are many of you who are extremely bitter over the fact that it took your doctors a long time to diagnose you with clusters, and that they were called migraines for many of you, as well. WELL, shouldn't your bitterness and anger be directed at those doc's who misdiagnosed you? Why do you feel the need to be so bitter and angry against other people suffering in a great amount of pain. Pain sucks, any way you slice it. Just because one pain may be worse than another does not mean we should act like another's pain is worthless and not important. To THAT person, they are experiencing their worst form of pain. You can find whiners and people with great amounts of strength suffering from any kind of pain out there. So the attitude that migraineurs are whiny and their suffering is worthless and stupid is very troubling. Sorry if this post offends anyone, but I just feel that the discriminatory and belittling attitude is a little over the top. I suffer from both migraines and clusters...does that mean I'm supposed to never talk about how the migraines affect my life, too, and only discuss clusters? Pink is right...other people discuss the other medical problems they are having. My migraines and clusters do have a few similarities, but also many many differences. I'm well aware of that, and I don't think that discussing how both affect my life blurs any lines of distinction. Lizzie |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by pubgirl on Feb 26th, 2004, 7:49am Well said Lizzie! You won't change their minds though. ;;D Despite what people here think, we have a lot to thank proactive migraine sufferers and their doctors and research staff for as many of our treatments came from them. Instead of being divisive and exclusive and sticking in our "we've got clusters" mentality, perhaps we should realise that we can gain by talking to Migraine groups and sufferers. We do here, and I draw your attention to a thread on the "Clusterheadache specific" board where it was being claimed that the reduction in CH diagnosis time in the UK was down to DJ and ch.com (DJ wasn't claiming this btw it was being claimed for him ;;D) on 02/25/04 at 04:35:50, MOBster wrote:

I do apologize for not being completely accurate. I forgot to mention the walnuts. I shall quote the prescription from the original doctor's book: So I took those eggs home and I frizzled 'em up. And I added some sugar. Two thirds of a cup. And a small pinch of pepper. And also a pound Of horseradish sauce that was sitting around. And also some nuts. Then I tasted the stuff And it tasted quite fine, But not quite fine enough. -Dr. Seuss "Scrambled Eggs Super" As I understand it, the eggs are the certain ingredient which he says are the secret. All told, it involves the eggs of a Mop-Noodled Finch, Beagle-Beaked-Bald-Headed Grinch, Shade-Roosting Quail, a Spritz, a Flannel-Wing Jay, Twiddler Owls, a Kweet, a Wog (that only eats blossoms from Beezlenut Trees.

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by amen on Feb 26th, 2004, 10:34am Thanks for all of your replies. to clear a few things up: First of all- I did not post this under CH specific, for the very reason that I was not asking about CH. I posted under "General" because I had a "General" question regarding migraines. Second: I was asking for my relative here because she JUST got a computer and I am sure that she hasn't had the chance to do any research herself yet. Third: When the doctor prescribed her the meds, she wasn't throwing up yet. Fourth: thanks to all of those who stood up for me, I expected some negative feedback from some. I have been around this site long enough to know to expect that from some. It doesn't bother me. Sixth: Just so you guys don't think I am cruel, I should clear up the fact that my brother was home with her and I did not leave her alone to care for my kids while she was in this condition. And now for her update: she took the Immitrex and she did not throw it up. It gave her some relief but it was short lived. She is still in pain today, but not throwing up and the pain is not as severe. I will check out some of the links you guys gave and I will pass the information on to her so she can do some research herself when she is feeling up to it. Thanks again to everyone and I wish you all PF days. Andrea P.S. Kevin OMG [smiley=laugh.gif] [smiley=crackup.gif] |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Lizzie2 on Feb 26th, 2004, 3:36pm OK Just so's you know.... The about.com site is for ALL headache types. It is not a migraine sanctuary. There are many cluster sufferers who post there. People who post there also have various kinds of migraines, tension headaches, post-meningitis headaches, post-concussion headaches. It's for one and all. Same with achenet.org. Cluster sufferers there, migraine, post-traumatic headaches, chronic daily...lots of stuff. Don't know about other sites because the main ones I spend time on are those and this one. Smiles, Lizzie :) |

I did, and here is what I found. Familiarize yourself with the message board It's probably a good idea to watch the Message Board for a bit before you post. Expecting nothing but technical discussions on the board? Ooops! Sorry. We are a family. We talk about everything. Some serious, some silly, some downright ridiculous. Lots of us find that laughter helps ease the emotional difficulties of dealing with a debilitating, permanent disorder that has no cure, no know cause and no truly effective treatments. But others prefer to confine their comments to serious discussions. There is plenty of room here for all. You can read every post or learn to skip over those that don't fit your wants and needs. Frequent posters, and we have many, tend to reveal much about their personalities in their posts. You are likely to find someone who you can relate to. Some of us are self-proclaimed analytical types, who tend toward serious discussions of a technical or scientific nature. Others are in the "touchy-feely" style, usually staying out of the analytical discussions but always quick to offer support, words of encouragement and a shoulder to cry on. So while this: Quote:
is true. It looks like there is room for other types of conversation. In fact it also looks like you can skip over the threads you dont't like by not ever clicking on them to begin with! But in all seriousness to belittle someone with "meegraines" is about the most childish thing i've seen in a long time. Especially from people that know what it's like to hear "oh just take a tylenol and tough it out". I could go on and on here jonny, it's very easy to make fun of people on an anonymous forum.

Never again will you have to search, hour upon hour, for information on Cluster Headaches! You now have a place to "hang out" that you can call our very own. You now have a place to "vent" when you wake up at 3 a.m. with a headache, the oxygen tank is empty, and you're out of Imitrex!

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Paigelle on Feb 26th, 2004, 6:47pm Migraines are such a walk in the park. I sleep it off and if necessary I will throw up. No biggie! I have had them last for 7 days in a row at times, I just take it easy, avoid caffeine, and stay out of bright light. A rx for Midrin helps too, if I have it. |

Would this statement not be a personal affront? I would consider it one toward who it is written to. So...if this is a personal attack, you are saying the speaker has nothing intelligent to say. Now I can understand why you are done here. The relationship of a personal affront being spoken, to whether that person speaking it has had anything intelligent to say to begin with, makes absolutely no sense. If that is the inference, that jonny has nothing intelligent to say to begin with, well now some true colors are showing. There is a lack of intelligence showing by that statement. That is most certainly a personal affront. If that is so, your whole post was simply to voice a personal affront and ALSO contained no thoughts based on facts. I am glad you posted so that it has been made clear who your post was directed at now. It seems it's very simple to notice, and your post is a very good example, that when you choose to point your index finger at someone, notice the other four fingers in your hand are pointing back at you.

LOL [smiley=laugh.gif] Oh, the irony!! I guess no one could answer my questions huh? Thought so when the joke books and strawmen were pulled out! Thats ok....this is why I only bring up the subject once every blue moon. Based upon the last pictures from the Hubble, there should be another one in May. Can't wait to start the drive to add a migraine button on the left side. :o PF P.S. Could someone hold the door for me please? I have my hands full, carting off all this migraine information. Maybe the Salvation Army is interested. I need the deduction. |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by BobG on Feb 27th, 2004, 12:48am Hmmm. 3 more topics to add to the buttons on the left side of the screen. Carting- I disapprove of carting. But I pay someone else to do it for me. Salvation Army- I approve. Deductions- I approve of this. If it applies to me. Screw the poor people. ;;D |

Ok John, since you want to play with words, the message board usage page can be re-written to make it more clearly understood what is meant by that entire page. I thought it would be understood (by stating what I did on the main index page) that this site was made specifically for sufferers and supporters of Cluster Headaches! I personally didn't think too many people would actually go any further into the site, much less try to start arguments over "the rules" after reading whats on the the main page by clicking the 'big blue link' at the bottom of that page. We can go there if you like....... I don't think you honestly believe the points you are trying to argue. I think you're just trying to stir up shit. If you do believe your arguments, maybe another message board would suit your fancy better? |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Jayne on Feb 27th, 2004, 9:00am I would like to clear up something for everyone on the usage of the word "Meegraine" that some of us use on this board. We do not use this word to make fun of migraine sufferers. Here is where this word came from. At the CLUSTERHEADACHE convention in ATLANTA a few years ago. Mr John Graham who is the organizer of OUCH UK. Stood up and gave a wonderful speach. He used the word "Migraine", but instead of saying "Migraine" he said "Meegraine" (it caused a few giggles around the room). So in essence, when we use the word "Meegraine" we are all poking gentle light hearted fun at mr John Graham, whom we all love and have the greatest respect for. He is an amazing man and so is his wife. So, stop being so effing sensitive. Aw shit, I gotta go, I'm getting a "Meegraine" now. |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Pinkfloyd on Feb 27th, 2004, 10:30am [smiley=laugh.gif] Jayne, Nice try. I didn't know that there were 437 people at the Atlanta convention. Impressive numbers indeed. Sounds like the same excuses used when people here have used the word N***** Come on Jayne, maybe a few people use it that way but....unless my hat isn't covering up the word "fool" that's on my forehead.. You know that 90% of the people that use it never even heard of mr. Graham. You know it's used in two different ways. One, it's either used to show complete disrespect for the condition and those that might admit they suffer from them or two, it's used to bring up the subject without being ridiculed for using it or admitting they suffer from them. Nice try at an attempt to put an end to any fighting, and its appreciated for that. DJ, If you'd like to discuss this, I'm up for it. Let's begin with who it was that brought the rules into the discussion. Maybe Johnny is reading the rules printed on the back door? It does seem unclear.....are cluster sufferers allowed to discuss migraines here? Very simple question. It'll only take two or three keystrokes to answer the question. Since it's your website, I'll respect whatever the answer may be. No one said that this should change into a haven for migraine sufferers. Just seems a bit ironic that I can find out what type of exhaust system I should put on my 69 Chevelle but I can't ask people I can trust what they would suggest I try for my wife thats suffering from migraines. I guess I might also need a list of what constitutes "bullshit" information. PF (now, about that "mushroom" button. ;) |

Title: Re: Migraine sufferers Post by Jayne on Feb 27th, 2004, 10:52am wow.....you need a chill pill!!!!! The word Meegraine was NEVER used here until after the Atlanta convention, and it caught on....so some of the people who use that word like that did not know how it started here... Peace, love and imitrex!!! Jayne |
