I am tired of drs who think they are gods. they think they can tell you how many migraines you can have a month, and what will help you.  I am 50 years old and have suffered with these since I was at least 4.  I remember them that far back.  How can the dr tell me I can only have a certain number per month. Then because my dr changed her practice to be a hospitalist and parttime mom, I have to suffer thru finding a dr who will then keep me on the meds I was on, because the next dr doesn't treat the same way as the other one did. They all have their "own" way of treating a patient, so I am the one who suffers.. I miss work, and end up in urgent care because the next dr jerks me off one medicine that is working because he doesn't think I should take it, and increases another one that makes me drowsy because he thinks I need to take more of it...  sometimes, I just want to shoot myself.. If I ever die from a migraine it will be from taking to many advil just from desperation to stop the pain pounding in my head.  Does anyone have an answer to the circle?
