ABOUT ME:

I am a mom of three with the girls being migraine suffers.  The oldest girl migraines were controlled by birth control since hers were strictly period related.  But my youngest 12 years of age is just can't get a relief from the migraines no matter what we do. That is why I am here.  My husband of 24yrs and I are just at a loss on how to help her.
