SHR # 2285 :: Say Goodbye To Migraines :: Elena Gross - About 3 million people a year are diagnosed with Migraine Headaches. Re-occurrences can last for years and for some Migraines are a lifelong struggle. Migraines are debilitating, robbing the joy from life. Most sufferers live with anxiety awaiting the next episode. Symptoms can range from pain in the head, neck and face to auras, tunnel vision, spontaneous vomiting and unconsciousness. There are no lab tests for Migraines and brain imaging is little resource. Many of the drugs used to treat Migraines don't provide much relief and come with hefty risks. Most are anti-psychotics or drugs used to treat nerve pain. There is emerging evidence that there may be a metabolic component to Migraines that can be influenced by diet and lifestyle. Imagine that. Many of Migraine sufferers are already experiencing near complete remission. Your physician isn't talking to you about this. But you'll hear all about it on today's show. ::
