Headache
"Like many others, have suffered from tension and/or migraine headaches since I was a child (age 7 or so).  My mother and father both had histories of tension and/or migraine headaches.  I was prescribed initially fiorinal, around age 15, and then changed to fioricet by my neurologist due to upper gi problems (gerd).  Until I had this medication prescribed,  my life was controlled by my headaches.   I can remember as a teenager, feeling that I couldn&#039;t be away from home for very long due to fearing a headache would come on.   No child or adult should have to feel that way!   I wish that all the physicians who are uncomfortable prescribing this medicine would read these comments!  Thank you."
