My experience-Constipation anyone? 😟
I suffer from chronic migraines and abdominal migraines. My current prescriptions include 100mg Topamax daily, 40mg Relpax (Eletriptan) as needed, 8mg Zofran as needed & 500mg Naproxen as needed.
I've been bad at keeping a headache diary for my neurologist. So I made a promise that I would be diligent about documenting everything for my next follow up in January. One thing I'm noticing is extreme constipation during a migraine. It'll be regardless of whether I have my headache or just an abdominal one. We're talking days without going and I'm on Linzess as prescribed by my GI dr. That med practically gives me loose stools daily, which is normal for it...sorry for the TMI. As soon as a migraine hits, it's like I never even took it!
When I get a migraine I try Miralax (GI dr said this is ok) and even if I go the BM's aren't health complete ones ugh. So basically my question is...does anyone else experience this? Have you discussed it with your neurologist? Is their a med that can help with this migraine issue? It appears the Relpax doesn't do anything to address this symptom so I may need something else.
