My Son has had a migraine for 9 days at 9/10 pain, decreasing at times, after ibuprofen, Tylenol w/codeine and maxalt to 4-6/10 but only briefly. It has now been 2-3/10 for 3 additional days (12 total) after a steroid injection in urgent care day 9. I want to reach out to this community for some advice. I am an RN and have been very concerned about the lack of treatment he has received, feeling they are not taking it seriously. He is not a complainer and never goes to the doctor. From the 4th-9th days he was seen in ER (they did do a CT), urgent care and 2 phone appts. He called Friday (Day 10) to tell them he was out of migraine medicine. They made him a pcp appt for Tuesday for days later which would be day 14 if it continues. They said the doctor would return his call and he was going to ask for a neurology consult and MRA but she never called back on a Friday and never filled the migraine medication. They initially said it’s probably a virus, then said maybe a migraine but no other diagnosis or testing and it’s still present. He has had neck pain for the last few days but is able to put his chin to his chest. He has had no other symptoms except some body aches during the middle which is unclear if it was from laying in bed for a week Please help! We need some answers and someone to listen. Thank you!
