I am going to see my GP tomorrow. Any ideas?

Hi Kim,

Yikes, I'm late on this.. so sorry hon. A near two week migraine, yes I think it is time to see your doc and get some relief of some sort if possible. So much of what the others have said is true. Don't just suddenly quit caffeine for sure. Caffeine is used frequently for treatment. My step daughter suffers from migraines and I will have her grab a soda or two, but it sounds like you are beyond that.

I did a couple of searches for new treatments and maybe you will find something helpful here for your apt tomorrow.

Also I thought of Botox. I hear it's good for migraines and bonus (or would be for me at my age) you can simultaneously smooth out wrinkles. Again I have no idea how old you are so I mean no harm,

And then there's this. I thought of you Nanc. I know this might be too radical for anyone and I'm not sure I could do it, but given enough pain.. maybe. This seems to be how they are treating all kinds of pain hu?
