Severe Migraine, Nausea, Dizziness. Prescribed Endone During Caesarean Delivery Which Helped The Migraine. Continue?
Hi im in oz and i went to hospital the other day in desperation of helping my migraines/ headache . I have had one for 6 and half years and am always in moderate to severe pain. I am unable to work due to this. The hospital said i need to go to a neurologist but will take a year and the chronic pain clinic at the hospital in Brisbane. I cant deal with being nauseaus dizzy and in pain everysecond of every day and night. The pain is so bad i cant deal with this anymore. the only thing that helped was when i had a cesearian years ago and was on endone. Is this something i can ask for. I know it is a strong drug and doctors dont want to give it to me, but until i can get proper treatment in a year... i cant last till then. will this help?

Hello
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Migraine is a episodic pulsatile headache which mainly occur in frontal and temporal region. It is associated with nausea, vomiting, photophobia, blurred vision. It is more common in females. As it is a recurrent headache treatment is chronic. Treatment options are
- To treat headache
- Prophylaxis of Headache
For headache in acute conditions medicines like Vasograine, Paracetamol, Naproxon etc. will help. Other drugs as Valporate are also useful Endone is a opioid drug, and it has very high abuse potential, don't try to take it as it will make you addict to drug. There are other good drugs available.
For prevention of headache many medicines are used. Beta Blocker drugs as Propranolol will help to prevent headache.
So I will advise you to visit a good Neurologist or Psychiatrist and take medicines for long time. You will be alright.
Thanks
