DSM3KIDZ Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 I stopped Florinef because each day my headaches were getting worse. Eventually leading to one of my worst migraines and it's still present but to a smaller degree.I weaned off Flornief like my doc said 3days .5. Could Florinef have done some type of damage to my system that I still have the killer headache?When I called my doc of Friday she told me to take 800mg on advil, 100mg of tramadol, and 50 mg of vistril. Every 4 hours. Well I did everything except only 50 mg of tramadol (100 would make me fall. So that was all the help she gave me.Maybe I have brain damage........j/kI went 3months without migraines I hope there not moving in againDayna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldicedance Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 You need to get something stronger to break the migraine cycle. I was in a similar situation as you when I was on florinef. It took IV medication (DHE-I think) to finally break the migraine.Hope you are soon feeling better,Lois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogini Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 How much were you taking? My doctor told me to wean off by going from 2 pills to 1 pill for a week, then 1/2 pill for a week. I know I needed to be off it for 1 week before having my tests, so it probably stays in your system for at least a week - I have heard up to 2 weeks.
