I've given up on the neurologist / headache specialist I've been
seeing the last six months. Visits twice a week and many, many drugs
to try. All I have to show is a stack of cancelled checks and a shoe
box full of expensive medications that don't work.
However, I have found an accupuncturist who has helped. Once before
I received complete relief for almost 10 years by this method but the
guy had retired when I needed him again. I've tried several since
then but without success. Apparently there is more to it than
sticking in needles as the guy I'm seeing now has decreased the
severity of my headaches to the point I can almost get by with no
pain meds. Hopefully, a few more treatments will completly eliminate
the pain.
If anyone has tried this treatment without success, I suggest you
continue trying different clinics until you find one that helps.
