In reply to Those Darn Headaches, posted by BobYuma on January 31, 2004, at 17:36:27
I had the horrible headaches you described the whole time I was on Lexapro. Sometimes they went on for days. Then I'd be fine for a few days and then the headache would come back. Lowering the dose didn't really help me all that much. Now I've been off Lex for about a week- headache is better, but still there (i.e. it's not stabbing anymore, but it's still pretty bad). I had never had these migraine type headaches before I went on Lex. I hope they don't continue now that I'm off. You should talk to your doc to see what they say you can do- I know that headache can make you really non-functional. Hope you feel better!!

> It's Bob again. I just passed the ninth-week mark on Lex. Over a week ago I thought that the SE's had all but disappeared, but not so ... in the last few days the horrible, unmistakable Lexapro headaches have returned. The pain is always in and "behind" the temples. Today the headache got so bad before I could get back home and take something, that the pain went down into my jaws and even my teeth felt like they were hurting.
> I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this particular SE coming back after eight weeks. Thanks for all your care and support, don't know what I'd do without you folks.
> Take care, BobYuma
