Ok girls all of you know my issues with medications well guess what my medication I take for migraines is being discontinued I have used it for 4 years and it took 3 meds and a lot of reactions to get me to this medicine so when it went MIA I called doc to see what to do. Ponstan is the drug they want to try and called it in today $50 to get it a month WOW this stuff better be gold! My midrine is my life saver and with my seizure medication the two have been awesome together. Even with all my medical issues my last seizure was in October that is a long time for me given the stress my body has went thru. I even feel comfortanle driving now so this change is hard on me and scary.
This new med I know almost nothing about other than a quick google search and what the pharmasist knew about it.
#1 it is not used often shocker lol they never give me common drugs
#2 it is used a lot for us endo girls ansd cramps which is one of the reasons the pharmasist thought doc prob was trying to help with my headaches and any pelvic pain I may have.
#3 it can be used for arthritis patients and I have that in my lower back and discs c6 and c7. Anyone try this medicine? Or have a story or if it works for them it would really help me...I am nervous this is happening right before I go back to work and all I can think is I have a reaction and end up with temp aphasia at the library my first week back. Yikes that's all I need. I am thinking of starting it this week I go back the 14th so if anything happens I could get it all straight before Monday. I see my neurologist on the 9th he will talk it all out with me I just feel awful starting new meds:( Any info would help thanks girls....
