If someone DOES find a cure, I hope they'll notify me! My wife is medically retired because of migraines and headaches in general. She has a headache all day every day.
When I met her, she'd have an average of 3 to 5 migraines a month. There IS a wonderful migraine treatment, but you'll need insurance or a thick wallet--IMITREX, or any of the other "triptan" type drugs. The wife used to get prescriptions for the injections, and they would work about 80% of the time. About 5 years ago, she started having headaches constantly, and shortly thereafter, she had 2 severe reactions to Imitrex (resembling a heart attack), so now she can't even take it ( but she'll occasionally take an imitrex PILL if it's bad enough)...
She's had 2 major TMJ surgerys which are contributing to her headaches, she's had several MRI's, X-rays, a nuclear brain scan, cortizone shots, botox, and every pain medication known to man stuck in her veins or down her throat. Other than the TMJ, they can't find a cause, and other than $300 worth of painkillers every month that just dull the pain, nothing helps either...
It would sure be nice to have her wake up one day without a headache.
