Migraines Intesifing

I have suffered for over 32 years with migraines. I am now 40 and the migraines have intensified. I've seen over 20 specialist in 3 states and no one seems to know why I get these for sometimes a month straight. The worst part start 6 months ago I started losing feeling on my right side of my face and unbearable pain shooting thru my neck and ear on my right side. My speech becomes slurred and I become disoriented. Ive begun to lose memory and lapse of conversations and I cant seem to focus on anything during the episodes. I'm concerned and now am in search of a migraine in the area I live in.

Hi have you seen a headache specialist or neurological specialist?

I have daily headache which intensifys throughout the day to migraine level. I was diagnosed with hemacrania continua 4yrs ago.

There are lots of medications which help and supplaments.

Anxiety also becomes part of this as you panic because your not sure whats happening and don't feel in control.

If you haven't already done so, get your GP to refer you.

Best of luck .

Misty, there is an online group group curing migraine through primarily diet. It is on Facebook, titled "For Migraine Suffeters Who Want to be Cured". Dr. Angela Stanton is the founder and author of a book about her personal story of curing herself through her own research, and outlining her findings for others. For us.

The group is extraordinarily supportive, knowledgeable and helpful for anyone suffering and the life ruin of migraine. Please check it out. And her book, "The Migraine Epidemic".
