1) My husband's migraines
have been getting progressively worse over the last year... We are now searching
out a local migraine specialist... Physician wants to put him on more mediation,
the ENT wants to operate to cure a deviated septum, and the sleep clinic
prescribed a CPAP to help with his sleep..

2) I have been having migraine
headaches in my right ear for over 10 years now. Actually the pain is to the
pinna, not inside the ear. I have been using Lidocaine nasal spray for over 8
years and it has always stopped the episode. Sometimes I get almost instant
relief; other times it may take up to an hour... I am terrified that I may some
day become immune to the Lidocaine. Is this a possibility?... Laci.

3) I began experiencing classic
migraines at the age of 14... my physician prescribed Midrin which seemed to
help with the excruciating pain. Years later, I saw a neurologist as I began
experiencing classic migraines more frequently (6x's/year, with such symptoms:
visual aura, numbness on hand and lip, and of course, the dreaded headache). He
indicated that he would not want to prescribe anything for me since the
medications could interfere and cause me to have a stroke....

4) I have had headaches/migraines
since I was 19, and I am now 24.. I was talking with my Grandmother recently,
and she told me that when she was about my age, she used to get migraine
headaches so bad she would have to sit in a dark room until they went away. I
had never known this before, so I was wondering if migraines of this nature can
be hereditary? Thank you.

5) I suffer from what the doctor
calls a typical migraine. It generally starts over the left eye and I am
violently sick. When I am sick the only way I can describe it when I bend down
is as if my brain is trying to come out through just above my eye brows... I
have also had these symptoms without the headache, which my doctor calls a
silent migraine. I am 52-years-old and wondered if this puts me at risk...

6) I am 21 and have had migraines
for about 15 years that I can remember. My mom always had to rock me to sleep
with a warm washrag on my head. I have been to the doctor several times with
different prescriptions, none seem to work. The only thing that seems to work is
to go to sleep... Do you have any ideas or suggestions for a type of medication
to go on?...

7) I am 27-years-old. Eight years
ago I had a peculiar headache. It was preceded by visual disturbances (like
glaring or flashing) for about 15 or 20 minutes. Then it stopped and after few
minutes a severe headache started and l normally lasted for half an hour.
Sometimes I even had nausea after the headache... Later I approached some
homeopathy doctors... Last week the headache attacked me with the same symptoms.
After that there were two incidents where I had only the visual disturbances
(lasting for about 20 min) which wasn't succeeded by headache. And now for the
past two days, my eyes are sort of weak and dizzy...

8) I have migraines so severe that
my vision fades and ceases, and my speech gets blurred. Sometimes I can hardly
think straight. This has happened all my life started when I was six or seven.
Doesn't happen all the time but often enough to scare me. have never heard of
anyone losing vision or controlling speech and wondered if this is normal. I am
now 79 had and had episode like that yesterday.

9) ...I was diagnosed with
migraine headaches approximately 6 years ago I was put on sandomigraine... I
then foolishly took myself off the drug 1 year later .Since then(5 years)
have been suffering migraines very frequently lately. I am trying a more natural
route but, have failed so far. I feel that I may have to return to meds
again….After reading some of the info on your site I am a little confused...

10) I have suffered from migraine
for the last 20 years still not under control, five years ago I had a emergency
operation due to hydrocephalus and they also found that I have a colloid cyst in

from migraine also...
