I am only 21 and I am starting to be so lost with the whole situation. I can handle having migraines but they last visit to the ER they told me I was having a TIA (mini stroke) and kept me for 4 days. I am beginning to feel overwhelmed.
I was wondering if anyone on here; does any alternative medicine therapies and how it works for yall'? I think my body needs to be detoxed from all the crap that has been put in...I am having severe stomach pains; and headaches...the DR. said that its my body trying to "get back to normal". Do any other migraine sufferers do yoga, meditation, detoxing, acupuncture, reflexology?? ANYTHING???
I am willing to try everything and anything at this point. Classes, clinics, vacations?? Thanks for letting me vent everyone!! But if anyone has ideas it would be great! |
I've been fortunate not to have but only 1 migraine in my life..My nephew on the other hand used to get them really bad, and I'll tell you what made them stop...a chiropractor..it's always seemed funny to me, how if you go to a chiropractor and they can't do anything for you, they will refer you to a dr. but, Drs don't do the same, they would rather fill your body with meds...please find a good chiropractor and see if that helps..My nephew used to go in his room and cry when he was growing up they hurt so bad..it was so sad..
I was always told to take a paper bag and blow in and out of it for migraines...I've only had the one, and at the time, didn't have a paper bag, so couldn't tell you if that works or not..but, I would be on the phone calling around, give the chiropractor a shot
