Get well RB. Hope to see ya at the PC soon.

I'm out for July, but hopefully August onwards my attendance will be more regularly again.

Work, home life, health sometimes takes a hit - hope all gets back on track for you again.

Cheers Norm

One of my docs suffers from them too. She prescribed me 1.5 Naprosyn 500 to take as soon as I start to notice symptoms. It usually staves off my migranes. Another couple of 0.5 doses are allowed later if symptoms persist.

If you wait for the pain to start is is too late.

The doco than comes with Naprosyn specifically mentions the use of it for migranes.

Thanks Andrew, years ago when they were very regular, ie one or two a week, I did take some Naprosyn and it did help somewhat.
I'll have to start it again I think as they have started to become more regular.

Thanks Al, yes I've had a full check, everything seems normal, even had a CT and all is clear.


I think I'll be seeing seeing my specialist again, can't become complacent about them, I thought I had finally stopped suffering from them but alas they have started to come back.

Thanks once again everyone.
