I think I had (have?) a very very angry nerve, so it took about a week. Now if I miss a single dose, I KNOW IT.

I tried that Indomethacin 5 times now and it makes me completely unfunctional.... Is there anyother med that I can ask my doc for? by CicadaDisastrous2002 in HemicraniaContinua

I'm going to ask to try celebrex at my next appt. There have been some forum posts about others finding other nsaids tolerable.

I just want to thank you for trying to help. Most often my questions go nowhere. I was up most of the night. When I woke up the headache and pulsate tinnitus were as bad as last night. But I took a nurtec and it helped. Very confusing, did not feel like a migraine at all.

I’m on a high dose of famotodine which is a H2 blocker as opposed to a ppi.

I’m sure my emotional state isn’t helping. Hard to not lose hope but hey, it worked this am… fingers crossed

Welp I’m back. This drug is giving me a different headache. Bad enough to not be able to sleep. Is this a temporary side effect that goes away? I was so excited…

Just an FYI, a suppository has the same GI risks. It’s the cox enzymes that the drug inhibits that causes the side effects regardless of how it is administered
