This excruciating pain is what happens first, lasts about a day/two. . then, before I received the acupuncture treatment, I would get the migraines. . . . now, it is this pain in the back of the neck/head for a day/two. . . . I suffered from a mini stroke last week. . . . from the pain. . . . all right sided. . . .

ave this severe pain in the back of my head, basically below and to the left of the right ear. . It actually feels like being hit with a 2 x 4. . . Sometimes pressure is relieved by laying on an ice pack. . . the relief tho is not permanent. . . I have taken the imitrex shots I give myself. . . these do not work, and also darvocet and many other things. . . . I do not get the "migraines" any more since I have been into acupuncture. . .
