Close Migraine Headaches
Chronic Headaches and Migraines for about 20 years. Tried everything from eastern to western medicines. I am currently on Prophylactic medication but even if I feel its not working cause I have bad headaches or weekly migraines without it I am completely bed riden. My pain starts from the base of my skull, I become sensitive to light and smell, loud noise, movement, my motor skills become clumsy, I also start to slur my speech.
Treatments
- Acupuncture Not Working
- Had bad reaction - spend a week in bed unable to move without throwing up.

- Triggers migraine for me. Yet caffergot which contains caffine is the best strong medication I have found so fare.
- Inderal Not Working
- Didn't work for me at all.
- Magnesium Too Soon to Tell
- Started taking for ingury for Sport but found out it can help headaches and Migraines, havean't had any benifits yet.
- Topamax Not Working
- Didn't work for me at all. and is known to cause birth defects in animal trials and these side effects are documented in humans yet - i want kids - not taking that risk!
