Will this ever end?

I have had migraines for years on and off but in January I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease and was out of work for a month from that. Since then I have had migraines every day and can't seem to find any relief and it is so frustrating. I don't have a life because I am battling a migraine everyday. I am either sleeping...

acupuncture

I too have found acupuncture very helpful. To treat my weely migraines though, I would have to go 3x a week, which I did for long time, but the expense was too costly. Insurance does not cover this and the out-of-pocket money cannot last forever. But I continue to see him at least once every ten days, for I get such relief from... Read more Chevron
