Debilitating Headaches And Vomiting

Updated

In one day, I received a flu shot, started wearing progressive lenses in glasses for the first time, hit my head (minor), and started isosorbide. I spent most of the day vomiting with debilitating headaches. Some of the day was a return visit to the doctors office to vomit there as proof. At one point, I put a weightlifting plate wrapped in a towel on my head. The worthless pain medicine Tramadol did not help. Excedrin Migraine didn't help either.

I am very sorry about what you experienced. Have the symptoms resolved?

My best guess is that they were caused by the Isosorbide, it is well known to cause those types of side effects, as listed by the FDA. You may also experience dizziness, flushing and frequent urination.
