Constant headaches and migraines

2018-01-20 19:56:15
I suffer from regular migraines and headaches and take painkillers and sumatriptan almost daily. My GP has suggested I try either antidepressants, anti epilepsy or beta blockers to relieve my problem. I’m very reluctant to take any of the 3 as I’m scared of the side effects, I also have low blood pressure and worried it may make it worse, I’ve tried natural alternatives(chiropractor, cranial massage, herbal tablets) to no avail and am getting desperate now as the quality of my life is pretty bad
