Still tender and vaguely headachey in the occipital region, almost exactly 4 hours after I took the imitrex (about five after I started noticing the onset of pain, while we were at the vet’s and driving home). I’m also currently having a hiccuping fit. I should have included them in my description of seizure-like bizzareness. Who the hell hiccups for ten minutes straight without precipitant? Apparently people having simple partial seizures. I really hope they go away as I withdraw from the topamax over the next day or two–it’s even become something of a joke at work (well, I’m not entirely certain I’m not the butt of a joke in this case, but I’m not offended, so it’s harmless?) that I hiccup often and without cause. Light sensitivity has receded. Frankly, I’ve had as good or better pain management on excedrin. Mom reccomended chasing with ibuprofin, as she thinks it’s what’s in the newer formulation–I’ll check drugs.com and see.
