Title: Beast returns...
Post by Karla on Feb 28^th, 2006, 10:16pm

Actuallly I see my dr tomorrow. This past two months I have had several migraines with an aroura which is unusal for me. I normally don't see colors and flashing lights. Then to top it off my clusters have returned. It started out one ch a day and now I am up to 4 x /day. Looks like the duragesic patch that has worked so well for so long (4-5 years) is now failing. Not sure if my dr will up my dosage or change meds. Last I heard the pain/ha clinic had shut down in town so... not sure where I can go. I did go off two meds this last month. Cymbalta and xanax. Not sure if that had an effect or not. I am now back on them to see. I'll let you know what my dr says tomorrow. I am trying hard not to get all depressed about the beast comming back after such a long abcence however, going back on cymbalta at this time is probably good timming.

Oh Karla, I am so sorry hon. :(

You're probably right about the Cymbalta though. It helped me immensely with the depression during my cycle. Let's just hope this is a very super short one for ya and that's IT!!

hugs,
mel
