I've taken two paracetamol and one 400mg Ibuprofen.
However, I've been throwing up all day, and I'm pretty sure the Ibuprofen came back up (sorry, gross). Can I take anything else? I have Codine, would that be ok?
I realise I shouldn't be taking Ibuprofen, but seriously, my head is hurting so, so much :-(
Just want to know if it's ok to take some codeine on top of what I've already taken...
Baby_Sham if you realise you shouldn't be taking it then I suggest you wait for our resident, qualified Doctor to return and advise you what to do. From a laymans point of view I suspect if you've been throwing up then a lot of the drugs are out of your system anyway which is why they've been ineffectivebut I do suggest you wait for further advice.
I didn't find out I was pregnant with my daughter until I was 5 months gone. In that time I had a bad dose of tonsillitis and was on antibiotics and pain killers...no harm done.
Don't know if this helps to explain or not, but the only time in my life I had migraine (very painful headaches, sicky and also disturbed vision) was when I was pregnant. That was up until the menopause, when I've had mild ones off and on. Do be careful what you take, you may feel it's the wrong time for a pregnancy, but to my generation you could never afford a baby and they came when they came. So good luck and I hope the 'hormones' explanation helps a bit :)
Baby - do listen to Sqad before me but some weeks ago I had a terrible headache - went on for days - (not preggers LOL) but remember many years ago I took migraines.
A few weeks ago I went to chemist and bought migraleve - both yellow and red in the same pack and I never looked back. Again ask Dr Sqad - but they truly did help me - I actually bought them again so that they are there if I need them.
