Headaches
Hi, I currently am doing infusions weekly and started on Zanubrutinib a week ago had to stop Calquence due to bad headaches. I'm still getting the headaches just not as bad but bad enough to where i have to lay down for a couple hours every morning n put my ice pack over my eyes and even drink caffeine. Do I just try and deal with it or keep changing Chemo pills?
I got headaches with Venclexta but did not change pills..I figured all pills had some side effects..
Best wishes to finding a successful medication
Do not take Dennis suggestion and run off a severe headache as it makes it worse. Sounds like a migraine. I have migraine anyway so Ventoclax makes them worse except I get migraine preventatives from my neurologist. Tonya3 your headache sounds exactly like a migraine. Doctor or your family doctor can prescribe preventative or actual migraine pain meds. Use carefully they work!!! No more lying with ice with horrid pain. Not contraindicated for our treatment. Trust me proper migraine prescriptions work.I would not have any life without them.
Tonya3,
Regarding your head aches! I think you are doing the right thing with cold compresses and drinking caffeine, however, you could try my " Cure All" do some exercises or go for a jog and get your blood pumping round your body. Good luck with it and keep smiling xx
Ya was thinking that.
