Migraines have diminished

I am a 74 year old woman and about 30 years ago my migraines started. My mother suffered and my sister and my son.

They changed over the years. For years just headaches then more visual disturbances and occasionally being sick, then about 2 years ago the pain switched from the front of my head to the back of my neck like a knife stabbing me. Eventually I was suffering every day and my doctor referred me to a Neurologist who I'm still waiting to see being the NHS.

About 6 weeks ago the migraines just stopped ... I can't tell you the relief I felt. Of course I'm sure I will still get one in the future but wondered what has happened I gave googled and found that it could be age related. Have any older people on here experienced this I am curious to know.

Thanks for reading this.
