I have had my present migraine for 12 days now and I am getting nowhere fast with treatment. I saw my primary doctor at the VA on Monday and all she said was that I did not keep my appt for psyche so she really had nothing to offer. I explained that I was in the hospital the day my appt was. I have been dealing with these migraines since my original injury in 02 and hate being treated the way I am. When I could not get my VA neurologist to offer any relief I contacted the undersecretary of the VA and now I am getting phone calls from DC and everywhere else. My neuro guy actually emailed me that he would not be browbeat into changing my treatment plan. I am so frustrated I really just needed to vent and I hope everyone reading this is doing well and having more pain free days.
