I am married and have 3 sons. I work and try to live life while enduring this disease that is not seen,understood,or forgiving. When a migraine is in your life it feels like u have no control. The only thought is how can I get rid of this horrible pain...I am having O.N.surgery on May 11,11.    JUst a quick update bcbs denied my surgery so I had to cancel. I fought + did get approved the date for decompression/.migraine surgery will be Dec5,2011.*** Update: As of 5-5-12 I have no burning,stabbing,electric jolts,in my head, they are gone,the surgery took care of those symptoms. I am waiting for insurance to approve 2nd surgery to diminish my migraines.
