How To Prevent Recurring Migraines?
I have suffered from migraines since I was 14, I am now 24. I have migraines with aura. I had a gap from them for 2 years and now they have come back again seeming worse than before and have been in a migraine period for over a month now. When I don t seem to have a migraine I have a headache which feels like my hair is being pulled out. I have tryed everything the vitamins sleeping regimes, don t eat the inducing foods, prescription beta blockers, pizotifen, the pill. Any other ideas?

Hello,
Normally, the migraines should improve as time passes. Since there is a change in the pattern, an evaluation with imaging (brain MRI) is necessary to exclude other possible causes of the headaches. Discuss with your Neurologist for these issues.
