I had several migraines during the last 4 years- but they have increased over this year. I had a 4-day long migraine and went to my neuro a week later- to find out I have migraine with aura.
Added Lamictal to my Keppra XR/Tegretol XR but nothing for migraine yet since I'm increasing one med and decreasing the other.
I noticed that when I had a seizure and then a migraine after- EMS would always give me oxygen. They said it should help- then asked me how I felt and if I wasn't as nausaious or dizzy.
From what I noticed- it would stop my dizziness and I felt more relieved than I thought I would. I've never heard of Oxygen therapy or even thought it was weird to be given it when I'm able to breath just fine. EMS told me that it should help out- but I needed a shot of Zofran to help even more.
I was so sick! But I was given a shot of Phenergan which made me basically high- but had reaction to it- so no more of those!
Anyway- now that I know about oxygen therapy, I have a better understanding of why EMS uses it with me.
Also- they told me that after a seizure, even thought its a complex partial seizure- it will help out with dizziness and tends to help out in feeling better quicker- I'm guessing because i don't breath much during my CPs.
Thanks for the info-
