Options.

I've been playing phone tag with the doctor.  He's ultra dedicated and likes to make phone calls after 9 P.M.  In case you don't know, I don't answer my phone after 9 P.M; that's bedtime.  So I haven't started any new medication yet.  I'm still just on all the stuff I was taking before I went to the new doctor.  However, Mom sent me a link to a news video about neurostimulators made specifically for headaches.  In the past they sort of Macgyvered stimulators made for the back to work for headaches, but now there's one actually made for the head.  It's sort of a big deal.  I considered the retrofitted one some, but then it never happened.  Now that this has been developed I have a-whole-nother set of options to consider.  I haven't done much research, but it's a new procedure and the doctor doing all the research is in Dallas.  That means I can't even pursue it until next summer, but it's definitely something to be thinking about.

Here's the link if you're interested: ttp://video.foxnews.com/v/1081807854001/new-technology-treats-migraine-headaches
