My Journey To Getting Diagnosed With Migraine

Hi,

I have been dealing with headaches since I was 2 or 3 yrs old. They continued to gradually increase as time went on. They're getting worse so I go to the doctor to get a physical examination, x-rays, blood & urine tests, but in the end, says it's most likely hormones. My Dr had CT, MRI, & PET scan done all within a 10-15 yr time span.

Seeing a neurologist for migraine

I still continue to get headaches on & off then finally I got a headache that wasn't normal for me so I went to the Dr got a referral to a neurologist & I was diagnosed with migraine & prescribed meds a few yrs ago.
