Hi aronson,

I'm sorry you are in a great deal of pain most days, that is exhausting and very frustrating. I'm not aware of natural cures, since there is no cure, natural or other for Migraine disease, I'm sorry to say.

The best thing you coud do would be to see a Migraine/headache specialist. This is a doctor, an expert really, who devotes his entire practice to Migraine disease and headache disorders. A neurologist may be a fine doctor, but because they treat so many conditions, it is difficult for them to be experts in any one area.

Here is our list of patient recommended specialists.

Good luck

Nancy

Kerry,

Thanks for posting about your experience with hemiplegic Migaines.

It's important to note that what your neurologist told you about the pattern may or may not hold true. Everyone's patterns are difrferent. If hormonal fluctuations are one of your triggers, then they may be more likely to lessen or stop after menopause. Some women have Migraines their entire lives.

Also, every Migraine specialist I know says NOT to remove the ovaries in hopes of reducing Migraines. Removal of the ovaries might help, but it might also backfire and make things worse. Please, please, please consult an actual Migraine specialist before taking such drastic action. If you need help finding a specailist, see our listing of patient recommended specialists.

Good luck,

Teri
