(Posted by: Jums on 2007-08-19 21:31:05)

After years of being treated with narcotics (serious ones) for "headaches ", I have been finally diagnosed as a classic migraine sufferer and started on Topamax 25mg daily to begin and 400mg B2 daily. Can anyone give me any feedback on this? I will be going in to hospital for 3 days early Oct, to have lignocaigne fed through a drip to cleanse me of the pain drugs, as the neurologist thinks my daily headaches are drug induced, has anyone undergone this procedure or heard of it? He has warned me head wise it is very painful! This is he first time I have seen this Dr and I trust him implicitily. Any info would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Jums

Topamax works extremely well in some patients. Migraine treatment is very tailored to the particular patient..so in this case, I would trust your neurologist (we try :-P ) If you think that something is wrong, talk to him, and tell him your concerns.

There is no medicine for H/ A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic. Acidity, WORRY, DRUGS, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation; Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/ A confirms it. Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see. Avoid late sleeping if possible;spicy, sour, stale bakery foods and alcohole. Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help you. But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/ A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong. If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/ A will disappear within 30 seconds.
