Hi, new here, and will go by Dinkster J. Have had Migraines for the last 14 years and recently diagnosed with Occipital Neroualgia causing migraines. Lost employment almost 2 years ago due to depression, mood swings, and loss of concentration. I was an automotive technician for 20 years and loss of concentration lead me to put out some vehicles that were not safe. Im sure lots of you can attest to all of these symptoms . Ive been to several Neurologists, had x-ray, MRI, and CAT scans with no medical reasons for this. My personal feeling is that my choice of profession lead to nerve issues in the left side Occipital area, with repetitive neck positions. Have gone through the
usual trial methods of meds, with little results. Using a "cocktail" of meds and pain killers with little help. Hoping to find some friends who know what Im talking about and maybe even some suggestions.
