I used to get coedine for my migraines, until my brother stole it to resell at school. They were sleepier than usual in study hall that day.
Life was never easy for you.
I was prescribed some narcotic (probably codeine, just not sure) for my migraines in the '90s pre Imitrex (right up there with the wheel in list of man's great invention, IMHO) and remember two things - (1) there was a much more documented process for getting the prescription (the doctor had a special numbered pad, the pharmacist checked ID and - think but not sure - had me sign for it) and (2) I still had the searing headache, but was loopy / groggy and, kinda, cared less about it. That said, it really didn't help as I was still out of circulation until everything passed.
