Hi Debbie,
Sorry it took me so long to respond. I have had CDH for 15 yrs. or so. They
came on gradually over a period of about 4-5 yrs. starting when I was about
30. I'm 47 now. I've been on scores of different meds. Nothing really great.
I'm on Zoloft everyday and other migraine meds like Maxalt and Imitrex when
they get real bad. I still have a HA everyday, all the time. I can take
norgesic forte for pain or ergotamine/caffeine tabs. They work sometimes for
a while. I'm on disability and had to quit work as a graphic designer 8 yrs.
ago, because of the constant pain and depression that goes along with it. I
hate that. I wish I was still working. I get very tired easily and generally
feel really old most of the time.I've been to so many docs I quit counting.
Accupuncture, bio-feedback, hypnosis, sinus surgery, physical therapy, botox
injections....you name it, I've tried it. No luck.
Carolyn
