I've recently moved to Pennsylvania and retired. In the five weeks that I have been here I have had a migraine or a migraine lurking for 28 of the 35 days. In times past I have had some help from an Occipital Nerve Block. It was injected in the office in the back of my neck. Is there anywhere in central Pa where this is done?

Hi Maureenmigraine!
I am sorry to hear that you've been suffering for so many days this month! I know how exhausting pain can be!
I'm happy to hear you are looking for a doctor in your new location. We have a list of specialists on our site: Patient Recommended Migraine and Headache Specialists.
There are a lot of Migraineurs who travel great distances to see a specialist. So if you don't see one local on the list I gave you above, try looking in surrounding states as well. When it comes to Migraine and headache disorders, a specialist is where it's at! They have done additional educational credit hours just on Migraine and headache disorders! For more information on why a Migraine and headache specialist is so special, click HERE.
We also have a forum on our site. This is great for Migraineurs who want to chat with others who know what you are going through. If you would like to check out the forum, you can reach it from the main page by clicking "Migraine Forum" under the orange Manage tab. Or, you can just click HERE. You will have to make a new log in and password for this side of the site, but feel free to use the same one you used for the Q&A and Share Post area.
Hope to see you in the forum!
Good Luck!
