Hello to all!! I am a new member to the group & hope to be able to give
& get helpful info on migraine headaches. I am might as well a 31 yr.
old mother & I have suffered from migraines since late 1986 early 1987.
I was finally diagonsed by a neurologist a week ago that I do have
migraine headaches. My family doctor kept telling me that I didn't have
migraines & told me to take ibuprofen when I do get a migraine then put
me on verapmil & another medicine amitriplyln (or however you spell
it). When I went to see the neurologist her upped my dosage of verapil
& took me off of amitriplyln telling that I did not need it. He also
gave me Esgic-Plus for me to take when I do have a migraine. Besides
having migraines I have epilepsy,seizures & have cerebal palsy (on one
side of my body). But I do not let that get me down. The neurologist
that go to told me that the resaon why I have seizurs is because of
the scar tissue on my brain from my cerebal palsy. I hope that I can
find helpful & usful information in this group & if anyone would like
to know more about me please just ask.

Becky
