Daith Pierce
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Hello.
I am thinking about getting a daith piercing for chronic migraines. I have used just about everything all over the years. I currently take propranolol, but it seems to becoming less effective and I frequently get breakthrough migraines lasting for days.
I see a lot of people say that this pierce is very painful, just wondered if it is more painful than a helix pierce or a navel pierce, which I have had previously?
Thanks in advance. Cate

Daith Piercing
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Does anyone here have Pesudotumor Cerebri or Intracranial Hypertension that has shunts but still has migraines? My migraines are in the back of my head and not on one side or the other, just all across the back, so which side would be best for a piercing? I’m not looking at getting both done.

I had it done and sad to say it didn't work. Migraines still keep coming. It works for some but not others. No magic bullet for getting rid of Migraines. It's hit or miss with medication etc.
