Hello Everyone!
I would like to say to all of you that I have had the pleasure to know here that I have missed you greatly, and that I hope you are all wonderful! Those of you I have not got to meet yet, hello =).
Things have been very stressful, scary, complicated. The major issue was my health, and my migraines. After several years getting treatment, I finally started seeing a specialist. Together he and I are working diligently to treat these chronic daily migraines I have. My ex-fiancee nearly beat me to death on Valentine's Day, 2009. Along with several broken bones and fractures, I suffered a serious head injury. I then started developing prolonged headaches. To add to it, July last year I was in a car wreck. I was the passenger in a car and we were at a red light, and this drunk driver smashed into the back of us going about 40mph. I suffered another head injury, and since that happened, my migraines have taken over my life. It is a long, slow process. Trying all types of medication, therapies, and other things to see if we can get the migraines to only happen once or twice a week, instead of every day. I currently am getting steroid injections in the back of my skull, which help dull the pain form the migraines. I also am taking some heavy duty pain killers, but I try to use them very sparingly, as I know the serious risks involved with these pills. Also, I have for the last year been very active with my church group, and I know the power of prayer to be very powerful. If any of you have any helpful information regarding migraines, and possible treatment, please let me know. I also recently was told that acupuncture, and acupressure may help. I have tried so many things, and if I stop trying that means I give up, and I can't do that.
I hope to be an active member as I once was. I truly hope you are all doing well. I feel like a member of a family here, and it is a wonderful feeling. :smile:

My daughter has debilitating migraines they believe are from sinus problems.....I'm sure nowhere near the level of yours, but I know how frustrating life can be for the whole family when someone suffers with these.....my heart goes out to you and hopes you can find some relief soon
Best wishes for a solution
