Three doctors and three incorrect diagnoses. A trip to the chronic pain clinic at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland, I cannot count the number of trips to the hospitaland then a friend suggested magnets. MAGNETS? Like many others I have seen them advertised and been approached by too many people who are in the magnet pyramid schemes and was entirely turned off!! But desperate is desperate so I broke down and got the cheapest one I could find from a sleazy mail order catalogue. Put it on, waited a few days, not even a week and weaned myself off of all medicine. I had called my doctor and told him and he felt as I did, anything is worth a try. I feel really hesitant saying this, but it has now been 4 months and I have not had one cluster headache. I did get a headache about a week ago and I cried because it was the kind of headache I used to get years ago when I was stressed and took 2 Ibuprofen and it went away. The only other person I know personally that suffers from the most heinous affliction just passed her 2 month anniversary of no headaches using the necklace I bought her. I am not selling them, I am only dumbstruck by this and I feel it would be criminal not to pass this through this sight. It cost $26 from Home Trends catalogue.
