Summary
Writing in an ME/CFS forum, they described a migraine that would not shift for three days and a short course from their GP that cleared the head pain after about 14 hours of sleep. They said it left them feeling as if they had been hit by a bus for a couple of days, and that they are sensitive to most medications, so the side effects were rough.

knocked me out for about 14 hours but when I woke up the head pain was gone ... did leave me feeling like I'd been hit by a bus for a couple days after though
