I don't know why he's prescribing Lortab for headaches, that won't do anything for headaches, besides the tylenol in them. If you have migraines consistantly, (I don't know what level your head pain is), but valium, xanax, and barbiturates will cause the headache ( if severe) to go away. Fiorcet or Fiornal, actually fiornal is a class 3 while fiorecet is not controlled, even though both have the active ingredient, 50 mg of butabarbital, will. I take seconal and valium, so I never get a headache. I also take percocet 10/325 (god, I got so much of that that I have scripts that are expiring unfilled) but that doesn't help a headache in me, excedrin does, but i need about 3-4 excedrins if I get a nasty headache, which I seldom do. Actually, hydrocodone and oxycodone target body aches, not headaches. They can actually cause them,headaches are caused by tension, that's why sedatives are in order. Tramadol, I don't know what you guys get out of that, I'd rather take a tylenol. Plus, I get so much oxycodone prescribd to me, I have a lot left over when I'm due again. And i get it legitmatelly, I was seriously burned, cervical spine injurry, and surgery 20 years ago on the brain. I think I get about 300 10/325's a month, 60 7.5's, and 90 10 mg oxycontin, as well as valium, xanax, and seconal, but that's hard to fill and cost a lot.

The tylonal in it does, but oxyconcode and hyrocodone doesn't help headachs, they atognize them. You need some sedative type medicine for that and doctor that prescribes hydrodone for headaxhes is a pusher that's wlling to write them, because he knows you wantthem. Mequin - Where did you get your medical degree from? You did not mention you were a doctor, so excuse me if I am being disrespectful, but if you have something to back up your claim, please mention it to us "less informed" Personally, I think you are full of hot air and I question anyone with "information" about headache medication that cant even spell the word "headache." I have a very well respected and known neurologist and pain management doc that prescribes me 10 mg of oxy, 3 times a day for chronic headaches and migraines, and it was the first time after god knows how many different triptan type meds that I used that I actually got relief. So with all due respect, I think you are full of s@#t and obviously are not very well educated in the english language, let alone the medical field. JMHO

Even if you take that whole day to go to the PM you may not get anything. My Dr. told me to tell them to just drug test me and get some medication. Of course I didn't say that since I felt it wouldn't sit right and just got more tests ordered at the PM. I had two Dr.'s at the same time say I needed pain management and referred me. One an Ortho and my primary. The PM dr. after I spent half a day in the office told me I should be happy I do not have tumors. I'm still blown away by that statement. I made a F2F appt. that day. PM wants to give you shots, order more tests and than maybe just maybe if you are still suffering for months give you some meds. I hope you have a much better experience. Take the one day and see how it goes. My Primay Dr. is afraid of the DEA. I agree. Thanks DEA!!! K i went back to my pcp|gp after it all ended. he will write a monthly 30 count.
he will also refer to a pain clinic, but i live in sticks and it would be a monthly visit for me and it would basically kill a day a month. i can not afford to miss that much work.
thanks a lot Dea.

Good lord, if we all had mequin's doc the world would be a better place  almost 400 narcotic pain pills a month? Plus Xanax, Valium, and seconal? That is flat out amazing to me. I can't help but think that mequin is the reincarnation of someone who was posting this same crapola a few months ago - assuming that people here would start PM'ing him/her and begging for some of those oxy scripts that are about to "expire"....good grief..... mequin - can you spell B-A-N-N-E-D? Didn't even think about that. With all of the scammers and people with malicious intentions, it's getting harder and harder to find the truth. I thought I was pretty good with then in's and out's of this online med world and have recently been duped and taken advantage of like a newbie, very humbling to say the least. Eating crow is not very much fun. Please exercise EXTREME caution in this day and age.

Sorry but I think this is major: I agree  It is funny how people that do not have chronic daily headaches try and give their opinion like it is a walk in the park. I was treated like sh-- for years then my headaches progressed and now I fight every day. My Pm doc is awesome but I do some work for the trust. Bottom line is everyone is different and no medication works for everyone each person is different some can take feverfew and headache is gone some ginger some hydro. We are all different situations and diseases. Yah in know Medication Overuse Headaches occure in some of the population but that is not always the case! "but i need about 3-4 excedrins if I get a nasty headache, which I seldom do." This part is really funny if this works I have some exedrin to sell you --Just kidding. This person is probably looking for people to PM them for a scam anyways Like Genethebean said. Tm

Butabarbital (fiorcet and fiornal) are prescribed for migraines, not narcotics, and especially not oxys. I don't get 400 pills a month, if it is that many, it's all the different medications combined, I take cholestoral medicine, etc. Oxycontin will give me a headache sometimes and I don't really get headaches. I'm not a doctor, but when a lot of people were getting oxys 10 years ago they all complained of headaches, the high causes like a stress. I'm not speaking just for myself, but just about everybody I ever knew that took it. And if you think I'm full of s*it, if I told you my medical/injury history, the operations, the hospitals, every medication you can think of, I don't have to be a doctor to know what effects certain meds have, especially since I'm not the only one.

Does the same thing to me. I usually have to take two extra strentgh tylenol, if that doesn't work, two more, etc. Although I'm getting wary of tylenol levels, I'll take excedrin now, that usually works, I shied away from it before because if i need more than two, that can cause nasuea. But like you, that's temporary, it usually lasts for days, sometimes five. It doesn't happen to me that much, but they are really buggers and narcotic pills don't help at all.

One neurologist beat into my head Medication overuse headaches years ago so I stopped all even over the counter with no reliefe in 6 months. This includes the combination you take not just narcotics more than 3 times a week. Now things have changed they are realizing there are different reasons for different headaches. Thought I would point that out. There is no one that can tell you with certintanty what causes chronic migraine syndrome I have the best neuro in town. They have clues and know the brains of migrain pacients are sensitive and many things can set a severe episode off. Good luck to all that suffer this awfull torture. This who know will understand this statement. Tm I am not beating on you but all migrains are not the same.
