It started to get better yesterday but woke up with it bad again today. We are thinking maybe as I'm on a very low dose of keppra I might be having some sort of break through seizures so for now we are keeping a diary on my calendar to see if we get a pattern. Neurologist did say we can up it if I need too.
 
Migraine headaches are so cruel. I hope you can get some relief soon.
 
Migraines and seizures are cousins and both are very cruel. Sometimes, tho, some of the AEDs, can bring on migraines, too, so make sure it isn't the Keppra that is doing this. Throughout my years suffering with E, several different AEDs have made my migraines worse. One of the side effects for Keppra is headaches, so keep track of them ,especially if they get worse while increasing the dosage.

Get better.
 
Migraines cruel thing If I was offered broken leg or migraine I take broken leg eveytime.No one putting me on keppra if it causes migrain.
When first went on lamc I was free of migraine for 2 year then they came back with force.
When I was in NZ a doctor told me they use lamc for migraine

Already keeping a diary on my calendar. It's odd how I wasn't getting these migraines til after I had an evisceration on my eye in July.
 
Hope you feel better soon.

The past few weeks have been hell for my headaches. Today is an especially painful day.

I bet it has.

Sometimes if it timed right I shoved a load cheap sweets plus tonic water and it can help Wine gums if you can get them never chocolate
I have tried natural remedies like wild letice that intresting one.and leaf of little celadin those both worked very well.I would advice you have someone who knows what they doing before using it
 
Bad weather has my sinuses acting up mixed in with trigeminal neuralgia.

So my head is throbbing from sinuses and my upper palate feels like it is being ripped out through my cheekbones.
 
With migraine my head in bucket 24hours about all I can vocalise is oh God help or why you hate me to inflict torcher.Its condition that do hinde your lif I can never make promises to meet people
I know trigeminal neuralgia patients hav tough time some even done the ultimate because no take the pain.They tell me same pain but to have that everyday I not sure what I do
 
Got rid of my migraine finally. However after last years seizure not long after it my boss at ordsall hall phoned me and basically told me not to bother turning up at my voluntary job there. He wants to see mum which is hard as she works Monday to Friday. Not the first time he has done something like this, once he told me oh Viv isn't in this Sunday so I'm going to cancel you just because I'm visually impaired, he forgets I have been going there since I was 8 if not younger and know that place better than him.
