I have had to deal with migraines for several years now. I sometimes get them frequently and other times only on an occasion. Usually it only lasts a day with medicine but I have gone a whole week with a migraine which is just torture.
I have tried several of the medicines out for them including Midrin and Relpax.
Relpax does nothing for me, the midrin helps some but not always. The one that has helped me the most is Imitrex. I have been on it for several years and it is the only one so far that has helped me. Of course a lot of times it knocks me out but atleast the pain is gone, lol.
Good luck with your husband's migraines, they aren't fun.
Amy, I always use to get awful headaches that were sinus related, my whole face would hurt especially around the sinus areas. They eventually got to the point to where they were getting worse and my allergy medicine wasn't helping at all.
So after talking with a doctor, I decided to have surgery on the sinus area, I can't remember what the surgery is called but it is very common. It was the best thing I ever did, I feel a ton better and rarely get headaches from my sinuses anymore. I am so glad I got it done. |
