Any Advice???

Sorry that no one has answered your question yet. My only symptom has been Migraines, and recently diagnosed with Migraine Associated Vertigo. I did horrible on oral estrogen, my neuro explained that women with migraines are due to the fluctuation of hormones not necessarily the levels. With oral estrogen or anytime you take any pill, you get a peak then a decline. This was making my episodes of vertigo horrible! I switched to an estrogen patch for a more even level and started Depakote for the migraines and feel much better now. Not cured, but managable.
Hope that helps.

Dear Lilz,Inderal for me has worked wonders for migrain and high blood pressure,i have been taking them for 18 years.The difference in the way my dr. wants me to take them is 20mg 4xdaily,that way inderal levels stay consistent throughout the day.If you still get breakthrough migrains you may want to tell your dr. to switch you over to 4x daily,works great for me.Inderal is also prescribed for some women to relieve "hot flashes" good luck and keep us posted Sincerely lily

Lilz,
I'm on 400mg per day of B2. This is through my neuro doc. I got occular migraines. This has worked for me so far. (4 months) You may want to ask your doctor about taking this. T.
