Hello

I have suffered from chronic migraines for years

Recently I have had additional changes and the neuro has requested a scan and also prescribed indometacin for potentially Hemicrania continua..5 days in and I experienced the Worst excruciating pain 10/10 I have ever had with violent bouts of vomiting...

I have suffered head pain before but this really was on a different scale.

I almost went to a and e as it scared me the pin in my head.

So i have stopped taking it and I still feel quite unwell

Waiting on call from neuro to discuss

Has anyone else experienced this?

Just seen your post. How are you now? I was diagnosed with HC but it was incorrect.

Tried indomethacin it didn't help me at all.
