Thank you all very much for your prayers and good wishes. The hard migraine pain broke yesterday and does seem to be gone for now, and hopefully will not return. The after effects of it feels like I'm a wrung out wet dishrag, sore head/neck and no energy. But at least it is not hurting like it was.

I've had these since 1979, been through every kind of treatment and tried every kind of med known. I had a wonderful neurologist for about 10 years who helped put together a program for me that gave me back my life. Before that it had progressed to the point of my not being functional at all...just virtual constant pain. The out of control episodes are only occasional now instead of being the norm like they used to be.
There is always a low grade headache 24/7 but much fewer hard migraines.

One of the really odd things that resulted from the crash last year when my back was broken was a decrease in headaches over all. This was only the 2nd hard multi-day migraine I've had this past year. Not sure why...perhaps the trauma to my nervous system when my spine was crunched when launched off the bike and then being slammed flat on my back on the ground.

Well, it's all just life. Stuff happens.
Thank you all again for your prayers...God does hear heart felt prayer.

I'm so glad you are feeling better, hope you stay that way for a long time.

"Seriously? YOuve never had a headache?!.."

Yes JOG, seriously I've never had a headache....BUT don't worry, I have suffered through just about every other ailment, malady, illness, infection etc. there is. Thank God I don't have to add headaches to that list.

Hi Lancer, sorry to read of your migraine only now.

If you can manage, see that you get a nuclear resonance or similar exam to your skull and brain.
Migraines may have neurological causes, or circulatory causes.
In other words, you might be a (good) candidate for a brain hemmorage, or a stroke, and the pain you feel is a blood vessel straining not to burst.

Am I being pessimistic, and throwing bad and ugly things at you ? Undecided

Perhaps, but, as my old grandma used to say,
"Better be proved wrong, and be happy about it, than to be merry-whatever, and be proved wrong..."

Wish you luck !!!

I appreciate the thoughtfulness my friend, but I have been xrayed, CT scanned, MRI'd, and am under continued care. I see my primary doc every 6 months minimum for the migraines & diabetes, and this past year finally went from 6 mo. to yearly checkups with the urologist for prostate cancer followups. And of course they always want lab work to go along with the appt's.
Adding to that, when I had the motorcycle crash last year and busted myself up, the doc's in that hospital (different hospital) did head to toe CT scans & MRI's with emphasis on the head/neck area to be sure no issues there, and then half dozen more of each type scan along with dozens of xray's on the damaged areas. So this past year especially, my body has had every little, or Big part Roll Eyes

, literally under the proverbial microscope.
At this point there is nothing in my brain that is amiss that todays medicine is able to detect.

If you stick a finger up into the air and another in the power outlet, can you listen to the radio ? It might be poor tuning...
