I am now able to confirm that it was the pregabilin tablets that was causing the allergic reaction. I stopped them for a while and things became better and i no longer needed antihistamines and could get on with things as normal. I tried to start the medication again as i was having early morning attack and although i can deal with them with my injections i thought the medication would help keep them at bay but all of a sudden the allergic reaction was back and i was in trouble so again i stopped the medication and now feel a lot better again.
it’s crazy the amount of different side effects you can have from medication and for ages we didn’t know what was going on.. Even the doctors were confused as i was getting signs of heart problems and yet when they did the tests there was nothing there and my heart was fine. The allergic reactions were responsible for all the different thing that's were going on with me and i am just grateful we have now found out what it is, I still suffer from attacks but mainly in the morning when it is cold or if i get a bad cold spell on my head it will also set off attacks but i can deal with them with the injections.
You have to be careful how many injections you take as it says you are only allowed 2 and if you take 2 every day for a while it cab actually make the headaches worst and you end up with extra problems as you are relying on the medication too much so its a very fine line as to how much you can rely on this medication. I am hoping the next time i see my specialist they will find something else for me that wont cause so many problems. I am starting to wonder if all the problems i was having with the different medication they kept trying was actually down to the allergic reaction i was having and not the new medication its something i should ask the specialist when i do eventually get to see him.
i Am also still waiting for an endoscopy that i was referred for in June this year and almost the year has passed and i still haven't heard anything yet. I know there is a long waiting list bit sometimes its just too crazy. I still have drink trap when i drink or food trap when i try and eat for no reason and it feels like its chocking me until i pops as it passes through. What is causing it i haven’t a clue but its still going on and very worrying, AT least i wasn’t as bad now as i was a few month ago so i can see a huge improvement i just wish the attacks would go away all together but that's just too much to hope for..
