I am allergic to Imitrex. Doctor gave me the first one in his office....told me to sit in the waiting room for 20 minutes to see if everything was good to go. After 2 minutes, got searing pain down my neck and back, after 5 minutes, couldn't lift my arms, after 10 minutes, couldn't move at all. Had to be taken to hospital by ambulance. The stupid thing paralyzed me for 6 hours. Told the doc if he EVER gave me that mess again, he would regret it. But after about 9 months, I got divorced and voila! My migraines went away!! Come to find out, my husband was the cause of them!!

, except for the pregnancy part. Had constant headaches as a kid (doesn't everyone?) - went away in early adulthood - only to reappear about 20 years ago. My doctor kept saying, "Headaches are good. It indicates that you have elasticity in your blood vessels." Finally I said, "We have to talk about these headaches." When he questionedd exactly how bad they were, I replied, "I have never understood suicide, but if you were to tell me that I was going to have to endure constant headaches like this for the remainder of my life, I would have to consider suicide." He immediately prescribed Imitrex which if used early enough controls them.

Much like Queen Em
