The first time I was hit with a migraine was so memorable. I was in high school and enrolled in an upper class chemistry course. The stress was high, the pressure was on to perform at a level I had never known before.
Then BAM! One day my head felt like it was going to blow up. One side was throbbing with horrible pain, I felt like throwing up and wished everyone would leave me alone...
At the time, there was no information or treatment for teens with migraine. Basically I was told.."Well it is JUST a headache." I am sure many of you have heard this before when trying to discribe your migraine headache symptoms.
As a result, like many others, I did not receive adequate treatment for years...30 of them as a matter of fact. But now that has changed, I practice as a specialist in this area, and believe that chronic daily headaches can be managed. Yes..they can, I have done it.
See? You are not the only one with horrible pain. Most victims are women and many of us suffer in silence.
While there is no quick cure, there IS management.
Headache Relief Is In Sight!
| ”Tonight I had a headache that I've had for over 12 hours. I lay in bed all day and still it did not go away. It was one of those that I know from past experience would turn into a migraine if I aggravated it at all. So I clicked over to your site and started reading. On the Holistic Treatment page, I read your recommendation for magnesium. So I went to my cupboard and found a multivitamin with magnesium in it and took 3 and 2 Aleves. That was maybe an hour or so ago, and I just noticed that my headache pain is receding. It's still lurking in the back of my head wanting to rear its ugly head again, but it is no longer in the forefront tearing my eyes out. Thanks for the advice, and I wanted to say that your site is lovely.”
