"Angela, I lived in Saskatoon, moved 25 years ago to Kelowna BC. I am your story! I am ready to top myself because there are no headache specialists in BC. One in Toronto, Dr Lay. Will not see me, I begged staff, would move, family dr asked “NO”! One was in Calgary, AB? No! My experience is this, there is no Dr, neurologist or witch Dr that can help. I (we) need to be seen by a headache specialist period. I have no house, every penny went to trying anything. Not a dam potion or drug is free. 25 years and they are worse, different but have isolated me completely. I am so angry, willing to give my life to become a martyer for Migraines! My last attempt at quelling the severe aniexty, depression and god knows what else I have become was met by a pysciatrist last week, who told me ‘ not possible, not possible you react to the antidepressant with migraine. You have migraines, so you got a migraine. Go see you Dr, I can not help you with migraine, that is what you have, so go now” I can not help you. I hear this in my head almost daily now. Yet the first apt this shrink suggested the migraines were caused by my severe aniexty and severe depression? I need a headache specialist. This is my last ask for help. Can someone tell me if they had a result with a headache specialist in Palm Desert, Palm Springs area please, or where a Canadian could go in that area for treatment. No more drs neurologist shrinks, the way you leave us damaging to my mental health and anger that is beyond words. "
