I also have trigeminal neuralgia, which causes me to have even more head pain and allergies to most pain meds, I suffer and suffer and suffer. UGH! Also, I can't even remember the last time I didn't have facial and head pain. Is there a way to put me in a coma and restart my system? Who knows. My lot in life is pain; and I accept the things I cannot change. :)Ronihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00798824311571287918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-89998181542679056092012-07-12T13:52:21.308-04:002012-07-12T13:52:21.308-04:00so, dr g. thanks to this blog topic of the day , y...so, dr g. thanks to this blog topic of the day , you have now generated migraine week....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-20181763344500407202012-07-12T00:57:19.209-04:002012-07-12T00:57:19.209-04:00sitting in the dark with icepacks on our heads in ...sitting in the dark with icepacks on our heads in solidarity.

I get them on average twice per month and they last a minimum of three days each event.
