![]() So much of what I'm reading here is familiar, and for different reasons. I'm new here, and as you'll read elsewhere, not in the USA.

Third, I don't take advice from someone who has known me for all of 5 minutes and I'll never see again, cuz I will make sure of that. Oz is a quack selling junk science and one day he's going to get someone killer. Well, first off, I completely doubt your story. Then they try to tell me about their worst headache and someone's friend's sister who had immediate curing of her migraines forever by drinking something Dr. People stare at me, and I just try to explain that I'm getting a migraine. It makes me feel stupid when I'm out in public and it happens. Now I know to look out for that symptom, and any time I lose coherency, I immediately take my migraine medication and go to bed. I could see the word in my head, knew that's what I was supposed to say, but I would say "shoe" or stare or stutter while pointing at the object. I remember a time last year, before my mom passed, that I became so upset that I couldn't label something as "pen". I hadn't realized I was struggling that badly.

I get a "three day" headache every 10-14 days where I feel like I have an ice pike through my neck in to my temple. I get "real" migraines where I lose vision, numbness on one side, problems speaking, nausea and light sensitivity. I try and explain it to the Dr but he lumps everything together.
