Hi-I went to an allergist today after my primary care physician refered me after a weekend of migraines, hives and digestive issues. She thought it might all be related to a food allergy. I found out I had a few food allergies but the main issues seems to be that ibuprofen could be giving me hives. I take ibuprofen often and I have very sensitive skin. I wonder if other people have issues with it and have other OTC painkillers for migraines.

So my doctor used to prescribe Naratriptan but since my insurance no longer covers it she now prescribed me Relpax. I guess my question is has anyone tried this medication? Any side effects good or bad? Haven't had to take any yet ( knock on wood) but I'm trying to get other people's opinions about it before I do.

Recently had an MRI and it showed a lot of white matter which I know is common with chronic migraines. Diagnosed with ischemic brain disease after this. I’m having severe pressure in my head like it’s going to explode so my neurologist prescribed Propranolol ER. I’m kinda scared of the side effects though & if I have to stop it I’m worried about withdrawals. Starting at 60mg
Side effects with extended release?
