So, I have been to the migraine clinic!
Basically, the diagnosis is a mixture of or migraines and tension headaches. For the migraines there's not much they can do (I've had my catscans and all, so it's not a tumor or anurism (sp?) or anything), except keep giving me coedine.
For the tension headaches tho, I'm going to be having regular visits to get a bunch of needles in my head and neck, which are meant to rewire the pain responses for that part of my body (does this mean I wont be able to feel if someone let's say, hits me with a baseball bat?).
In any case, they are going to try to fix me! Yup.

I'm sorry hon, I get chronic migraines as well, no such thing as a day without a headache, just days where it's bearable.
I hear a lot about migraines =/ I got one once.. chrispy jeezus, I never knew how powerful those things were o_o Ad-nausium, all I wanted to do was throw-up and die, but none of it ever happened.
