Introduction

Do you suffer from headaches and/or migraines? Well I can help! I grew up suffering from headaches and migraines. They would put me in so much pain and in tears. I would even end up in the hospital because I was hurting so bad and couldn't get the pain to go away. Well I am here to tell you that it does and can get better. Even if mine are not gone completely I know that I can help them. Now I am on a headache diary keeping track of my headaches and a perscription to help prevent them. And so far they have worked wonders for me! I would either wake up with one or at least get one sometime throughout the day, but now I get them like 3-4 times a month! That is an incredible difference for me. I have taken blood tests, I've had an MRI, a transesophogal echocardiogram (pictures of the heart with a scope), an ultrasound on my heart, and tons of other tests!  I have been to my fair share of doctors appointments! But I am here to help you find ways to help prevent them, tricks to getting rid of them and food, physical and physological triggers. You will also hear more about my story as I go. So stay tuned with me and I'll keep you updated.

  1. Oh my gosh. I am so glad you are doing a blog about migraines and headaches! I get them all the time too! and they suck! I never really know why I get them. I also get them in weird spots on my head. Maybe look up different spots of where a headache is and why?

  3. I used to always get migraines. I'd have them so often that it was like they never went away. I wish I could have read this back then. Sometimes water can really help them!
