WHAT, you'd rather it was a tumor or something???
Sorry -- usually a clear CT is cause for relief.
We're all about trying to help each other here, so if you don't mind my asking, which/what kind of meds have you tried? Other therapies?
There's a lot of experience/knowledge/wisdom in the archives of this forum (Search facility) but posting traffic tends to be slow during the summer.
I went to several neurologists who claimed to know about migraines. They were wrong. I finally heard (from another doctor) about one they call "the headache guy" -- a neurologist whose practice is limited solely to headaches/migraine. He made the others look like idiots. Whoever you see, try to get a diagnosis as to specific type of migraine; it can make a significant difference in treatment.
Mine are not as bad as they once were. I've still not found a prophylactic that works, but after several tries, I have an abortive (Maxalt) that works
for me (everyone is different). Physical therapy helped as well. I'm down from over 15 episodes per month to 4-8.
