Colleen,<br />
thanks for your post. I have not been told about that. They just say that I have typical migraine headaches. The symptoms sound about the same. They started when I started my periods at age 16, 3-6 days every month till my change of life around age 50. Then last year they came back. (I am 62 yrs. Old at this time).Only worse then before lasting 20-25 days a month. Now they say that the migranes i have now are from the brain damage. They believe that the brain damage was caused from having such severe migraines. They r just now saying that migraines cause brain damage. Something no one knew back when I was young. Anytime I here someone talking about migraines I try to get them to make a appointment with a nurlogest for there migraines. So they don't end up with brain damage. Hopefully the rhizotomy will take care of the migrane problem. Although I was told that it probably would not work for my migraines, I took the chance because there wasn't much left to try. So far it is working. I have only had a migraine for 2 days in 3 weeks. That is the longest I've gone for 14 months. If there is anything else I can help u with feel free to ask. Sharon
