I have Cadasil and I am confused about what meds that I can take. I was told I think not to take Ibuprofen, but when I get headaches that is what my doctor gave me to take for the headaches. Thank God I have only had one but There is so much that is unknown about this I would love to get other peoples imput. I am only 38 and have had about 4 tias 3 within the last year. I hope that the people that are here are still here.

" I just went to see the nuroligist and he said that I could take Ibuprofen. I was also given a med for migrain headaches. I have been lucky enough to only have one and I pray I don't have another that hurts like that one. I am also on a baby asprin. "
