Jabs and jolts: That's sort of the old terminology, "Jabs and Jolts." We properly refer to them under a more etiologically based classification known as Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalgias. These are typically responsive to certain drugs and atenolol is not one of them. I'm a headache specialist and neurologist if you'd like a private consult: www.healthtap.com/drsaghafi Key Code: PDXFNR
