Migraine for 28 days and counting HELP

Yes, we know it is a horrible experience! The last time we were admandant about no Compezene, but then they gave a drug in the same chemical family, and within minutes my son had the same reaction. Unfortunately, it lasted for a year, with random panic attacks. Upon investigation, we found the more exposure to the drug, the greater the risk for permanent neurological damage. His finally went away, thank goodness! His life is difficult enough without drug induced issues! At Mayo, the hospital oncology unit found this in young people so often, that their protocol "prohibits" the use of these drugs for nausea. They use something else. Glad you are aware of this danger.

Cost/benefit. Everything has side effects. Ethanol, nicotine, caffeine ( caffeine is THE most preferred drug in the world.), all have side effects. Sunshine even has side effects. Living has side effects. Check with Medscape- NOT the internet. Ask your Doctor. Average life span in 1900 was about 48 (but no Med side effects). From a guy who has been through 20 years of non- stop medical treatment. Take care my friend. Peace Dr Ron - Your well-being is my commitment
Understood. It just makes me feel panicked and crazy. I get very sleepy which isn't a bad thing but, going in and out of sleep and a panicked state is miserable.

It amazes me that Dr's know about this side effect and still choose to order it.
