> Re: John... Unfortunately, I'm already taking omegabrite and it doesn't seem to impact the headaches. I actually think these *are* tension headaches (tight band at the back of the head, lots of cracking). I was treated for them a few years ago and got rid of them (first with cardizen, then imipramine), but... I am very headache sensitive.
>Yikes! I have chronic tension headache and Lamictal makes things worse
at high doses. A pinch of Topamax may do the trick (great rep for
tension headache). Klonopin and Serzone have been my other saviours.
I have not tried the tricyclics, but I hear they are good.Fish Oil actually makes my tension headaches worse.
Good Luck!
John
