Just Tired Of It! Worried About Son!

I am getting no relief at all for the increase in meds. I saw my Psychiatrist yesterday and we talked alot. She seems to think that I do need to find a new Neurologist because she thinks that I could be having mild seizures with my daily headaches/migraines. This would explain the facial drooping. I will mention it to my Neurologist and I am also going to be looking for a new one just incase he does...

Headaches & My Son

Yes, I am still getting the same painful headaches! Infact they have been so bad that my husband wanted to take me to the hospital.  I went to the Ophthalmologist and I was told he didn't see anything in my eyes except I need glasses to read.  I don't do alot of reading but I am going to get them.  He is concerned about the eye droop so I am scheduled to see a Neuro-Ophthalmologist....

Migraine in the A.M

I really don't think doctors know what really causes us to get these horrible headaches. If they did we would all be getting some sort of relief. I was waken this morning at 2:45am by this massive pounding of a headache. I sat up holding my head, tears running down my face, wondering why does this happen, why am I going thru this, why can't these doctors find a medication to take this pain away???...
