Is there a good herbal treatment/tea for severe migraines due to Elmiron/Atarax? 
-
Mrs. Ridings
I was on...
Loestrin 24(to prevent period induced flares)
Elmiron since Feb.'07 for a year and half
Atenolol for Migraines(caused by elmiron) since June '07(Had to have the amount doubled)
Tried Prevacid didn't work.
Tried Axert for migraines didn't work.
Tried Frova for migraines made worse.
Atarax Feb.'07-Feb'08
Used to take IBS meds of all kinds, now I use Yerba Mate guayaki drinks, eating lots of fiber and flax seed, and taking probiotics and added magnesium. My probiotics help w/ flares too.
Now for the occasional flare related to stress, I take probiotic eleven and marshmallow root and it will make it stop and Im fine again. Otherwise I dont have many problems w/ my severe IC like I used to.Thank God!
Find the good in all things and then
anticipate the good so that you may enjoy it.
(KJV)Psalms 37:
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. -
Fioricet is great for migraines if you are able to take it at the onset of the migraine. It is an RX but it doesn't make you loopy or tired feeling. It just works on the migraine.
I had to take them 3x's a day when I was taking the Elmerion. Good luck to you.Live your life to YOUR best, and Love to YOUR best!!!

If a medication is causing headaches, you may need to stop taking it. I know I had to stop elmiron because of a non-stop headache.

I've tried taking elmiron twice and both times ended up with a non-stop low-grade headache that wouldnt' go away. No more elmiron. I'm bummed as I put a lot of faith in it and hoped that it would work for me.mom_in_maComment
