Mark,

Thank you for your reply. You always have so much information. I know that my B12 level was checked. I'm not sure about folate.

My blood pressure is normally a little on the low side. I have never checked it when I have a migraine. Would it be higher or lower?

I take vitamin D3, and I also take omega-3's, but I somehow can't stomach them when I'm having a bad headache. So the omega-3's are sometimes neglected.

I do take a sublingual liquid vitamin B-complex, because I have trouble taking the pill form of B-complex.

I do see both a chiropractor and a physical therapist. My chiropractor is also a kinesiologist. (She does muscle testing to see what your body needs.) The physical therapist that I see does cranial sacral massage. Both women help me immensely.

It's just that this PCS has made my brain so sensitive. I did have migraines before, but never like this. Now anything brings on a migraine. I am hoping that as the brain heals (too slowly for my taste), the migraines will get better.

I defintiely agree with you that trying to heal the whole brain is the way to go, but the migraines are killing me. I have tried many things before I considered the Botox. I took a headache class. I am taking vitamins and herbs, etc., etc.

I am so sorry about your friend that has suffered for 20 years with headaches. That is horrible.

Thanks you so much for your input.
