If anything, she needs to stop taking that much Tylenol, and switch to the Vicodin that DOESN’T have Tylenol in it. Can’t remember the name. I’m a big help, huh? “Norco”? I’m not sure. She will KILL her liver!!! Esp if she drinks alcohol w/ the Vicodin. ---

Yes John, it seems to work for me if I catch them in time. I know I’m supposed to be taking them every night as preventitive but I can’t bring myself to do that so I take them at onset. When they get raging out of control and I go to the ER with them they used to give me demerol and visterol but last time the dosed me with Imitrex in a shot and it zapped it in no time flat! I’ve tried the Imitrex in pill form and no effect and the next they want to try the nose spray but I am leary on that one because of sinus issues.
