Vicodin for Migraine Treatment?

Question by : Vicodin for Migraine treatment?
I am a 21 year old male severe migraine W/ aura sufferer and I have before been treated with triptons to no avail. On my recent attack I remembered I had 2 5/500mg Vicodin pills left over from a dental surgery I had a while back, so I figured “They helped me when I felt like I had knives in my mouth, I wonder if they’ll help with me horrific migraine pain”. And to my amazement it helped with my pain VERY effectively. My head still hurt, but no where near as bad as it normally does during an attack, and I was able to relax and go to sleep which is the one and only thing that makes my migraine go completely away. I want to tell my doctor about this, however, I won’t even bother if he is going to think of me as a drug seeker or if he is going to ignore me. Before you do the same please note, my migraines are NOT daily and a lot of times not even weekly and if prescribed I would only take it when I have an attack. Also note that I have been treated for migraines many many times before with all sorts of triptons and stopped treatment before my doc was gonna prescribe Topamax which is something I will NEVER take because of the horrible psychological side-effects. And I did not have any “rebound headache” that I heard you get from taking analgesics for migraines. So in short I want your opinion on this, do you think its worth telling my doctor? Or do you think he will completely blow it off or think I’m a drug addict?

ask for a very small prescription… if you only have you’re migraines on occasion, it will be quite awhile before you need another prescription and the doctor will then know you’re not abusing them…
