Title: Does this ever happen to you?!
Post by mynm156 on May 7^th, 2005, 5:52pm

Verapamil is my Saving grace. Now that I am Chronic When I do not have my Verapamil I have periods (LIKE NOW) Where every few days it is like my head is in Spasm. I get these kips of 3,4,5, but I get hit every 1-2 hours. After doing this for a couple days I am cranky, shadows are non stop and I am sooooo tense that that too adds to my head pain. Does anybody else have attacks like these. I may have just a couple tomorrow and then it'll start all over again. OH Just SHOOT ME NOW..

Hoping for better days for us all

Just a thought -- don't quit taking the Verap.

Unemployed, No insurance = No Verapamil

You can get 60 Verap ER 240mg tablets for $43 retail with no insurance at Walgreens. Two a day is 480mg per day for a month.
