Thinking about going back on Excedrin after detoxing a couple years back

Hey friends,

I've had a constant headache at both temples for about 30 years now, starting the second I wake up and lasting all day, every day.

The only thing (and I have tried literte everything) that gave even some partial relief was Excedrin, although often above the recommended dosage. A couple years ago, my doc told me to go cold turkey and not use Excedrin, because I may be having Medication Overuse Headaches.

Well, it's been a couple of years, and my headaches are just as bad, and now I don't have anything that can take the edge off. I'm thinking about restarting my daily regime of Excedrin, liver be darned. I just want some relief.

Thoughts?
