I had my first TCH infusion and was doing fine until night 4 when I developed a murderous migraine level headache that lasted 5 days. I didn’t sleep for 4 nights. It didn’t help that it was the weekend so I couldn’t get help right away. I suspect it was the Olanzapine. I have a note in to the doctor so I’ll see what he says.No one warned me about potential headaches so I was unprepared. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Sorry you had such a bad reaction. What is the Olanzapine prescribed for?
