Suggest Treatment For Chronic Migraine Headache
chronic migraines
I've been prone to having migraines chronically all my life, and the only medicine that helped was propranolol, but after I became tired and depressed, I stopped taking the propranolol and ever since I've had what seems to be a constant tension headache in the temples of my head, is this cause for concern?

If your diagnosis of migraine is confirmed you have to keep on taking drug or drugs for the same as per your symptoms. Get your eyes checked periodically , keep an eye on food articals which may aggravate your symptoms. Drugs useful are propranolol 20 to 40 mg and/or sibelium 10 mg at night.Bright sun shine &starvation tend to aggravate the condition. If you sense it happening you should immediately go for analgesic that suits you fine eg Paramet,because more you delay worse it gets.
