I have been seeing my doctor, but havn't been getting the answeres I've needed. This book helped me understand what was going on, what to look for, and even gave me ideas on what to do differently. It also gave me ideas of what i'm going to mention during my next visit to my doctor. My mother also suffers from migraines, and I have a few friends and do also. I have had no problem inviting them to read my book. Rating: 4 / 5 I suffer from cronic migraines. I have been seeing my doctor, but havn’t been getting the answeres I’ve needed.
