Cervicogenic migraine
Hi. I started having severe headaches a year ago with neck pain. At that time, I was seeing a chiropractor. He was afraid that the bulging disc in my neck may have ruptured. Long story short, it hadn't, but was still slightly bulging. Plus I have degenerative disc disease as well as arthritis in my neck. I have been seeing a neurologist for just under a year and have been diagnosed with cervico genic migraines. I have tried nortriptylin ( unsucessfully) ; Gabapentin worked wonderfully until after taking it for 3 weeks my throat swelled up. I am now on Topamax and was kinda happy with it, but am still experiencing migraines. My doctors really don't tell me much and I really haven't found much online. Is there anyone who knows about this? I currently don't have health insurance and am waiting on a hearing date for disability, and I do have an attorney. Any information would be greatly appreciated. The topamax 75 mg doesnt seem strong enough and 100 mg is way to strong..
