Any experiences?
Have just been prescribed for hormonal migraines, which are increasing in frequency.
Many thanks.

I was on the same when I was in your position (which was a long time ago) and if I recall rightly I believe it helped a great deal, along with avoiding known triggers and never delaying taking pain-killers when they were needed.

Thanks. I'm 44 btw. They have increased a lot in the last couple of years.

It's been amazing for me. Such a change. You forget what life is like without a migrane.

I have propranolol for migraine. I have had it for about 2 months. I've had no migraines since I went on it.

How much does everyone take and at what time of day? I started on 10mg morning and 10mg night but it's making me feel very tired. Only been four days so far

Thanks for the responses. :) What about weight gain?
