Can stress cause migraines
Doctors can help us! You just have to find the right one! I've managed to get mind down from 24-28 migraine days per month to less than 15, but obviously we still have a long way to go. It took… read more
Bob we’ve heard it. We either believe you or don’t. Stop peddling yourself on this site please.
I can't believe how much better I feel now that the temperature has dropped. There also does not seem to be the big fluctuations in the temperature, humidity and barometric pressure.

I went to see a neurologist and she diagnosed me with vertigo anxiety and migraine. She prescribed venlafaxine, which I didn’t take. I went to see another neurologist and he said that I have tension headache, anxiety… read more
