Kristy’s Story…Living with Headaches


Michael has lived with terrible headaches for over two years now, but you never hear him complain. He just sucks it up and goes on. He has been on 750 mg of Vicodin for a long time but that didn’t help much. So he had been taking 2 at a time just to help his headache for about an hour or two. Now his doctor at Duke put Michael on Oxycodone and a steroid to reduce swelling. But even with this stronger medicine he is still having headaches only now he is not getting all the Tylenol.  Apparently Vicodin has Tylenol and too much Tylenol can cause headaches. Michael has always been fine except for the bad headaches and the shaky left hand but lately he is experiencing coordination problems and dizziness.

I will tell you more about this tomorrow.
