My headache started Jan. 2007 and lasted until my neurolagist made the diagnosis of migraine with complications and started a beta blocker which was stopped a couple of months into taking it I was so light headed and my blood pressure dropped drastically. Waited 4 months for an appt with specialist at University of Virginia Neurology Dept. same diagnosis only other comment was they were puzzled because of the muscle spasms in right leg and big time tingling also think I had a mini stroke but not other tests sooo meanwhile back to the family Dr he put me on Celexia and Neurontin which have helped alot at least I can function most of the time like a normal person. Will see what the future brings....one day at a time
