: I was reading articles in Dr. Robbins web site 'www.headachedrugs.com' and wonder if anyone has tried what he calls his 'end of the line' treatment for migraines.

: Apparantely he has had quite a few patients who he has tried prescribing low dose daily opiod treatments (long acting morphine, methadone and oxycodone) for some patients that have not been succesful with anything else. (after eliminating the chance of rebound headaches etc.)

: I wonder if anyone has tried this and how it worked. The thought of becoming dependant on anything is not pleasant, but if it works it might be worth a try!
