New (?) treatment for migraine headaches.

This may be of some interest for some of us...

This is a magnetic treatment to abort migraines before they get full blown being developed at Ohio State University.

I only have a link to a local news website, so the information is somewhat limited.

Here's the link

I believe that the theory is that it prevents cortical spreading depression in migraine. Some initial studies have been positive.

I know it was trialed at my headache center, and my neuro told me that they were also interested in looking to see if it might be of some benefit to aborting a CH attack. Not sure that it ever went any farther than that, though.

Take care,
Carrie
