Bad Headaches

There are a lot of comments on fatigue, itching, heart problems, has anyone had bad headaches. I am taking solphadeine (paracetamol/codeine) almost every day, if i didn't- feels like hell. I normally take meds rarely

I get bad headaches the 3 days following the injection Saterday is the worst Dr. gave me Vicidon but I also have 4 bulding dics. in my neck at the base of my neck and it seems the interferon makes it hurt more. Sometimes I try ice on my headache. Most of the time I just have to lay down.


good luck

have one from this morning all day. I really can't blame the interferon/ribavarin due to i've always had bad headaches for several years. I use to take standard excedrin for migraine and they would do the trick but now i am trying to stay away from as much meds as possible so if it's really bad i'll put an ice pack where the pain is and that seems to give it relief.

My husband has severe headaches all the time. He takes Topomax and takes Darvon constantly. When we have talked to his Dr's they state it is from the toxins in his system. He is post TIPS procedure and Hep C. I wish you the best and hope this little information helps. Bless you and take care.
