Dealing with Medication Fatigue and Headaches

Struggling with the fatigue my medication causes me. My meds also have suddenly not been helping keeping the headaches at bay. What do you do when your meds stop helping your pain? I can’t imagine upping my meds since they already make me so tired 😮‍💨

So hard to say :( My injection shots also cause me to be extremely exhausted. The most I can recommend is maintaining a stable sleep schedule and drinking green tea when you need the energy. It’s lighter than coffee so hopefully you don’t get a headache.

I have. Unfortunately I really hate needles so during the session I was so tense I think I ended up with a worse headache after 😅

Have you also tried alternative therapies? I have found that acupuncture is very helpful for my headache. I don't like to be addicted to medications so I'm glad I found this treatment effective.
