I have been dealing with these long before IC was ever in the picture. However, I used to take Excedrine for them. Since I started having my IC symptoms, I stopped taking any Excedrine. I have tried Tylenol to help with my migraines but they do absolutely nothing for them. I've just been suffering through them the past few months. I have a HORRIBLE one now and I've had it, non stop since yesterday. Does anyone else get terrible menstrual migraines? What do you do for them? :confused:

My doctor gave me an estrogen patch to wear on my off-pill days, it has reduced the headaches, but not eliminated them. I'm continuing it because any little thing that helps is worth it. I hope you find some relief soon, these headaches are no fun and very disruptive!

They really are terrible! It's not as bad today as it was yesterday. This month's has been the WORST I've had in a while! Can't wait 'til it's gone! Sorry you suffer from them, too.
