Life Long Headaches

I have had headaches all my life. Since I was eight years old. I am now 57. I was diagnosed with chronic migraines at 50. At the same time on the same MRI, I was also diagnosed with a meningioma. A brain tumor behind my right eye. I was told it is calcified, will not grow, and does not affect my migraines.

Well, I have tried all migraine medications and nothing has helped. Ever. Nothing. My head constantly hurts and at times hurts horribly especially behind my right. So, so many questions.

I have been told I am not a candidate for surgery.
I am open for comments and suggestions.
