DD2 who is 6 has suffered from migraines for the last year and is currently having an attack once every couple of weeks.
Last time we saw the consultant she was put on a stronger medication which works slightly better than the nurofen / calpol combination. However, she said we should seriously think about putting her on propylaxis - but I think this may mean beta-blockers which I'm not sure about at all.
The next hospital appointment is in August sio I do need to start thinking about what to do - I will speak to dd and ask biut without knowing all the side-effects of the meds it is difficult.
Anyone out there with any experience?
