I have been suffering from migraines. Only when they attack...the pain goes to the right I and I do all of the usual things : nausea,vomit etc....But The pain gets so bad I end up loosing control of my left side and then pass out for up to 6 hrs or more. Seizures are involved although I do not know it. My chiropractors tell me this. Drs. have found that the seizures are a result from the headaches. Medical note...my son at the age of seven died from a brain anursym at the age of seven. I have been on many many medications. My question is ...is there any type of surgery that cam stop this pain. They occur about once every two weeks(bad) and headaches almost daily..which I can sometimes control woth valium.vicodin,and Esgic-Plus...and of course a phengren suppository. There has to be something that can be done...Oh I also bury my head in ice to try to numb the pain. I have changed my diet and that did no good. I only drink one pop a day.
Please tell me that something can be done because I can not handle this anymore
