Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have had a migraine for seven days. It is so severe that I cannot stand light or noise. I have been unable to sleep. I have been nauseated and vomiting. I cannot handle anything. I am a female. I am 35 years old, 5'4" in and weigh 260 lbs.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Medication right now you are using is more than effective. But medication like Tryptons (Sumatriptan) is most effective. Metoprolol, Propranolol, Gabapentin, Pregabalin are more effective medication to prevent recurrence. You have to reduce weight which may useful to reduce the attacks. Regular exercise and yoga may be useful. If symptoms are not improved, please consult your physician. He will examine and treat you accordingly. Take care.
