NAPROXEN vs NARATRIPTAN

Going to a small get-together for new years, and the poison ring I bought myself came in JUST in time! Cant wait to discreetly take my mid-party naproxen without having to fish through my purse! Happy new year everyone, may 2026 hurt less than 2025 🥳

I have so much wrong with me. Like it’s genuinely whole body at this point. Back pain, internal tremors, migraines, stomach issues, fatigue, heart palpitations, dysautonomia, rib pain, brain fog, vertigo, muscle inflammation, hands aching, pain that covers my whole body, knees hurting. I could keep

I'm hypermobile and fat and this has caused me to develop osteoarthritis in my hip, normal NSAIDs don't work on me and I'm allergic to naproxen. I'm scared of becoming addicted to opioids because they seem to be the only thing that helps but I've already gotten 2 prescriptions of them and I'm curren

This is more of a rant I guess. I've been struggling with pain for over a decade now, and no matter how bad it gets, I'm given naproxen or acetaminophen. Naproxen doesn't work for me, and it requires high doses of acetaminophen for me to get a small amount of relief. But they are still the only pai

Had a flare up today and usually when this happens I can’t walk. I usually end up in the ER because when I call my doctor I always get “we can’t help you unless you come in” Ma’am you diagnosed me and all I need is a steroid pack and some naproxen to reduce swelling. So when I was finally mobile eno

one more time. I’m going to scream. Anyone with me?

I have chronic pain along with fatigue and other issues and a majority of my pills are for my pain my doctors are trying me on so much before actually giving me anything to relieve the pain. I asked for 500mg naproxen and was given a muscle relaxer to take 3 times a day i’m up to at least 12 pills a

Hey everyone! I’ve been seeing a lot of posts lately in this sub and in others about people asking for little things that help manage the pain, so I thought I’d compile a list of stuff that helps me and others can tack on what helps them in the comments. I hope someone finds this useful! - **Prescri

This is my first post here, in fact my first post on reddit ever in many years of using it. I've decided to make this post as I have recently gotten back a good chunk of qualitly of life and felt its worth sharing, on the offchance it helps someone else to the same degree. **The Backstory:** I've re

Hi all, I just got out of my 4th or 5th appointment with my neurologist and she told me she's stumped and doesn't know what to do with me anymore. I'm so sad. I'm so angry. I'm only 20, trying to start my life. She said she'd talk to some of her colleagues and call me on tuesday but she looked hopel

I tend to experience more migraines during periods of high stress. I was talking about it with my therapist and we identified a pattern where I get immobilized by stress, then get a migraine because of a break in my routine. Then I really can’t do anything but lay in bed for days and wait until the

Tl;dr - I'm not good at tldr's but basically I tell a long story just to say I really appreciate the staff at the three letter pharmacy I go to lol I've had a migraine going on a week now, and I finally caved and called my doc because of new symptoms and the fact that my sumatriptan wasn't really al

My migraines started around 2000. They're usually mostly on one side (usually the left), and hurt like hell. They would sometimes get so bad that I would have nausea and, rarely, vomiting. They come with sensitivity to light, but no aura. Most of the time they start in the early morning. I wake up

Im so thankful for the wisdom and compassion here. I need the thoughts of you beautiful people!! Please share any ideas you have whether your own experience, medication ideas, what to tell my neuro, etc. I’ve had migraines since I was 12 but only diagnosed last year at age 24 with chronic migraine

So, over the past year or so, I have occasionally had edibles in the weekend (when others drank). Alcohol upsets my stomach and I almost always get a migraine (often already while still drinking my first glass!) Now I have noticed that those edibles (usually 5mg THC, sometimes with CBD, sometimes wi
