Hi everyone,

I'm struggling. I have been having chronic migraines since December. Doc put me on propranolol 4 weeks ago which seemed to help initially but has since given me horrid side effects of crippling nausea and sickness, anxiety and insomnia. Doc said I could just stop and I had my last dose the day before yesterday. I felt more level 24 hours off it but couldn't sleep last night. I haven't sept properly in over a week and was so desperate for sleep so the fact I didn't get any was just horrible and made me more anxious. I'm desperate to sleep tonight so I'm waiting for a call back from the doc and I'm praying they'll prescribe sleeping tablets for a few days as I'm desperate for rest. Just feel all over the place. I'm on sertraline for anxiety and was ok until I went on and then off this medication.

Oh that sounds hard. I hope that you do get your sleeping tablets prescribed if that is the right thing for you and that you do actually get some sleep tonight. Insomnia is no fun and the side effects of your medication sound really unpleasant.
