Q: What does it mean when you get small bumps on the back of head when you are in a migraine?
Hi Tracy,
It may be time to consult a "true" Migraine specialist. Neurologists may be fine doctors, but the thing is, it's difficult for them to be experts in any one area because they treat so many different conditions like MS, stroke and epilepsy. And it's not that the doctor's not listening, rather, they really aren't well informed about Migraine disease. Migraine specialists treat one disease - ours - Migraines and headaches.
It's important to note that neurologists aren't necessarily Migraine and headache specialists. Take a look at the article Migraine and Headache Specialists - What's So Special? If you need help finding a Migraine specialist, check our listing of Patient Recommended Migraine and Headache Specialists.
Good luck
Nancy
