Answers for Migraine Pain

This book is filled with every option available for Migraine pain relief. It discusses all of the pharmacology remedies as well as holistic and non-traditional methods of pain relief, which include diet, exercise, bio-feedback, food triggers, stress and chemical triggers as well as posture. It includes headache diaries and questionaires to help assist you with your communication with your doctors visits. It discusses anti-inflamitory, anti-seizure, nsaid, anti-depression, anti-anxiety treatments that some doctors use to in the prevention of Migraine pain for chronic pain sufferors. I highly recommend this book as it sheds light on understanding the treatments and methods that doctors are using and why some remedies work for some and not others. This book also discusses the various types of testing and which ones are best, not only imaging but also including blood tests. Take care. Julie

Basic Information

While very readable and informative, this book provides information that I suspect most long-suffering migraineurs already have. If you or your child have just been diagnosed with migraine, and you want a clearly presented, very general overview of the condition and its current treatments, this is the book for you.

This is an excellent book for Migraneurs

Using simple language, yet including relevant details, this book addresses almost every aspect of living with migraines. Very highly recommended for those who want to learn more about how migraines can occur and, more importantly, how to minimise them. An excellent chapter on everyday living and how to prevent migraines on a daily basis. Thanks for a great book!
