I suffer from chronic migraines, half the time with auras, being in pain for 2-5 days every week. Ive tried countless preventative medications and pain medications prescribed by various doctors and my current neurologist (Ive seen three), to which nothing to date has really worked. At my last appointment he suggested Botox injections every two-three months, which I cant afford and Ive heard only works for 50% of the people whove tried it. He also mentioned getting a shot of freezing (I cant for the life of me remember the word) at the base of my skull and oved one of my eyes which Ive heard causes severe head pain for up to five days and again, is only about 50-60% effective, not to mention the risk of hitting and damaging a nerve each time he does it which would be every two months. I cant have marajuana because I suffer from anxiety/panic disorder. Im thinking on asking him for an x-ray of the back of my neck (Ive had an MRI of my brain already) because Ive read some things about spinal fluid not flowing properly due to a misalignment or some other kind of damage that causes migraines. I am also wondering about the nasal spray. My doctor said she didnt think it would work so I havent tried it. Any info and suggestions about anything would be great. Thanks and God bless you all!
