Re: [epilepsy] Headache pain

 

My neuro had to put me on butalbital....I was on Imetrex since 1996 and it stopped working. I have severe migraines and am EP and chronic pain also, so I am a challenge to all my specialy docs, yes there are more!
But the med works for me, ask your neuro and see. I have had ep for over 30 years and have had lots of med issues....so I speak from experience. I am 50 as of 16 June and hope it gets better, but have been seizure free for almost 2 years (knock on wood).
Good luck to you and let us know.

I get severe headaches all the time since I was diagnosed with EP two years ago.  If I don't eat every few hours, if I am running around all day at work or I am cleaning all day or out of the house running errands, I will have a severe headache and start taking alot of OTC meds along with my other meds.  I hate that I am so "fragile" now and that I have to watch my every move or I'll get sick.  I also have to watch how much time I can type or read at a given time. 
 
Does anyone else have severe migraines/headaches and what helps?

Hi Erin,

When I have little complex seizures, I rarely have headaches after. But 2 weeks ago I had my first gran mal in several years--and I was left with a huge headache. I forgot how bad they can be!! If you think about it, your brain is doing a marathon in a short period of time, so it makes sense you end up with a headache!
