Greetings all,
As I read about your lives, I find myself and my life in print with another name.
I remember hearing "that word" when I was 5. At least there was a name for something a child couldn't describe. God Bless those dear sweet Nuns and their kindness. Their medicine some 47 years ago was peppermint water. (I still carry candy canes)
People are quick to judge and make horrible pain worse..I think every doctor should have just one..maybe it's fear, oh my what to do? Perhaps we are just whining..after all it's JUST a headache! not
The peppermint?..well it was soothing and a comfort.
Living in FL the atmospheric pressure changes dramatically-quickly=daily migraine. Topamax has been helpful but is not working as well now vs 3 years ago. Seems that nothing works at times. My Doc of 20+ years retired. Rotating the meds for different types works best for me. I dread trying to find a new Dr. as most have never had a migraine.
I recently experienced injections of Kenalog in my forehead ...bp180/110. Y'all google this one before treatment.
I hope to get out to see Dr. Krusz. Sounds like he might be the best in the USA. Happy to hear the good reviews here.
My best to all. I truly hope everyone of you has great tomorrow.
Hello, and welcome to MyMigraineConnection.com!
Isn't it both spooky and wonderful to read about someone else's life and experiences and feel as if they're describing yours?
I fully understand why you want to see Dr. Krusz. He's my hero! Still, have you checked to see if there's a good specialist closer to you? Although he'd be happy to see you, I know he's always concerned about people who have to travel so far. If you'd like to take a look, our specialist directory just went live on the site,
