Hello,
I was wondering if you all might be able to direct me to something in my area that deals with the conditions of migraines. I live in the maritime provinces in Canada.
About 7 months ago, I was diagnosed with cluster migraines. My doctor perscribed medication and the headaches increased. I am now 7 months later, taking 6 medications(Amerge, Zomeig, Cyclobenzaprine, Tenormin, Imitrex, and Maxalt), have trembling hands and arms, and stutter on a regular basis.
When I mention the changes to my physician, he just tells me it is the headaches and perscribes another medication to take.
I am 24. I want to know why I have these headaches, and how I can control them. I have them everyday and I cannot stand them. I just really want to know what to do that I am not already doing that will allow me to have my life back.
Any advice would be wonderful.
Thanks!
Tracy
