anyone else having headaches all the time?

I went to the doc yesterday and talked to him because I have been having headaches all the time and tylenol just wasn't helping..he put me on inderal to take every 6 hours and then gave me fioricet to take when the headaches got really bad but he said not to take it a lot because it is a category c med...I'm kinda scared to take it but I guess my doc wouldn't give it to me if the benefits didn't out weight the risks...

Anyway att the appt yesterday we got to hear the heartbeat which was 154 last time we heard it it was 170! We get to find out the sex of our little one on nov. 16th I can't wait!

I have taken it once today and it worked amazing...I hope once the inderal gets built up in my system i won't have to take it as often but I'm getting another headache so I will have to take another one

I don't like the barbituate that's in it...it makes me feel foggy and dazed and "high"...but it tends to work pretty well for headaches. Some people love it so hopefully you'll tolerate it better than I do, lol

Why do you hate fioricet?

Yeah I normally have awful migraines but this past week they've been worse than ever. I'm also on inderal (for headaches and for a heart problem) and I'll warn you that it kinda drags you down when you first take it, but it's a pretty good medicine.

I hate fioricet with a passion, but it is prescribed frequently during pregnancy. I really hope it helps you out because it is a fairly effective headache med...so sorry you're having the headaches and I hope they ease soon!
