This will be about me and my migraine story. Its a nightmare I guess you can say but you learn to live with, function with, and help yourself because no one else knows you better than you. My very first migraine happened right after my son was born 20 some years, I can't recall if I had them earlier but I know they run in my family. The pain was very dibilitatating, I couldn't move I was trying to get ready to take my son to his Docter's appointment but there was no way so I called a friend.
Trying to explain the pain to the Docter was terrible all he thought I was trying to do was get drugs, get a high, what a piece of **** he was and probably still is. I think we all have been to one of those Docter's that don't care.
Hello, and welcome to MyMigraineConnection.com!
Migraine is a genetic neurologic disease. Plenty of Migraineurs have had bad experiences with doctors at one time or another. But when we find a doctor who will be a partner in our health care it is worth solid gold!
A Migraine specialist is an expert in headache disorders and Migraine disease. If you are having more than 3 or 4 Migraines a month you may want to see one.
