IMITREX (SUMATRIPAN) TWICE DAILY FOR 2 TO 4 YEARS (VS)
OmyGosh..I'm Margie. Many years ago, I had chronic migrains. Bad ones that were debiliating to my marriage and career. For years, I used the nasel or pill form of Imitrex. I, at the time in my life, was also going through a bunch of "Garbage" as I call it.. e.i., multiple tragedies back to back. I believed, at the time, that the onslaught of such stress was the reason for my memory loss in my years of 41-52ish. Today, I'm 58 and the memory loss never "really" got better, rather it has become much worse. Doctors have noted and diagnosed this memory loss problem as a secondary condition caused by "Depression". Perhaps, it's true, but I feel WAY LESS depressed than how I felt so many years ago.
IT DAWNED ME SUDDENLY after reading a pamphlet about **Sumetriptan and memory problems ***
The correlation was more than co-incidence, so I'm still believing.
If anyone of ya'll have more information about this topic or can relate, please, please write to me

Sorry for the lenthy text, but I felt it gave important informative info. to link Memory loss to
Imitrex/Sumatriptan.
NOTE: **TOPAMAX** MIGRAINS SUFFERERS ---VERY IMPORTANT**
The 20+ years of "rebound" headaches (whatever) were literally cured when my "Country Doctor" in the Florida Key's, where I lived. Dr. David Grider, Big Pine Key, FL put me on Topamax. Topamax saved my life! It is/was used for treating Epilepsy/seizures. Researcher's found it seemed to block and "cure" Migrains. Perhaps, it cured me. But God in Heaven, please give me back my memory. I appear unintelligent, ignorant and disinterested in what friends have confided in me-e.i., their expectations that I will retain what may trouble or bring them joy. It seems to them that I did not listen and/or didn't care.
Thank you very much to the one or one/s that have read this novellete and care enough to write back.
Margie
