Hello

I have had migraines since I was 8 years old. The hormonal ones were the worst and I have tried every treatment imaginable. I’m older now and don’t have the classic migraine with the hammer inside your head and extreme sensitivity to light and sound. However, it feels like my head is in a vice-grip, 90% of the time. Has anyone experienced this and, if so, did you ever find a solution?
Thank you
Francine

Yes, Botox and using a device called Cefaly. If it gets really bad, I take a triptan and ibuprofen and it relieves the tightness. The Cefaly device has been extremely helpful!
