I went to the doctor today and got new medications. He prescribed
topamax and norgesic, both to be taken bid (twice daily). I have no
experience with either drug, but I'm hopeful they will help. I also
talked to him about my experience with stadol and he said it was
dysphoria and not an allergic reaction. He also said if I ever use the
medication again to limit it to 1 spray. Apparently, medication that is
sprayed up the nose is absorbed into the blood stream much faster than
medication that is injected im (intra-muscular). I'll be much more
cautious from now on. I'll let everyone know how my progress is doing
in a few days. Take care.

Mike

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that zoloft was being used to treat headaches. I've already tried the maxalt and did not respond to it, but I'm glad that it...
