17 Year Old With Frequent Migraines. Need Cure
Hi,
I have a daughter in Melbourne, Australia, 17 years old, suffering weekly migraines for more than 7 years. I was hoping that you may know of someone anyone that may be able to help us down in Melbourne or somewhere in Australia. I am slowly losing her. She has tried every medication suggested by neurologist in - all 8 of them supposedly experts to no avail. She had absolutely no quality of life and sitting her final year - yr 12 at the moment. How will she ever be able to live a normal and productive life???

Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
It is unfortunate that your daughter has not responded to several migraine therapies.
Though I do not know anyone personally, please discuss about the BOTOX therapy in migraine with her neurologist.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
Best wishes,
