Ok so I thought things were starting to get better. My heart wasn't racing, my migraines were settling down, stress was leaving me and i was starting to live again. Now i'm getting cramps which could be caused by the anti-imflamitories that i take for my migraines. And if the cramps are cause by them then I have to stop taking them which means the only thing left for me to take for my migraines are narcotics, which is not good. I'm alergic to triptans and other meds i can't go on because of my heart. And to top this all off My heart has decided that it's going to start racing again and when i say racing i mean 160 beats/min at rest or higher.which causes my migraines to sky rocket out of control. ARGGG it feels like I took 3 steps forward and 10 steps backwards. It's so frusterating and worring, i mean i went through major surgery in 2005 for my heart and had 2 ablations done on it so it wouldn't race again. I know they told me that it could race again at anytime but i didn't think it would happen this soon or that it would affect my migraines like it has. Sorry if this doesn't make sense to anyone but i really needed to vent.

My goodness. I'm so sorry things aren't going well. It so often feels like it's two steps forward, three steps back. It gets really old, doesn't it?

Jemima,
I'm so sorry you're going through this! When will you be able to talk to your doctor about your cramps and your racing heart? Is there anyway you can try other preventives? I'm sure you know this already, but there are over 100 medications that can be used for Migraine prevention and virtually endless combinations of them: Migraine preventive medications: too many options to give up! Please keep us posted on how you're feeling. I'm sending positive vibes your way!

Yes, I think I would go ahead and screen. I'd think I'd feel better even momentarily.
When will you hear from your doctor about what action you should take? The waiting is so hard for you, action is easier to deal with I think, don't you? Let us know what happens and take care. Cindy  |
