We have been having a rough time with migraines
associated with the initial craniotomy surgery back in April.
We added a new doctor... a neurologist.
He gave us new medicine, we got that regulated and went
6 days without a migraine.
Then he wrestled a little with his brother and...
You guessed it Migraine.
He also got new medicine for the actual migraine and it
helps alot. Brings his pain level down from a 7 to a 5 in 15 min.
It's AWESOME!
