I started having some headaches while growing up. I had them through college and during my working career. During this time they were occasional. However, the last five years have been horrible. I’ve had a headache most days of the week (pain and nausea). I have been working with a headache specialist in San Francisco, but so far nothing has helped.

I had an MRI and everything was normal. Nothing seems to work for me. Right now I am on Nimodipine and it isn’t helping. I live on Dilaudid for the pain. I ran out of Dilaudid about three weeks and can’t get in to see my Doctor be fore my appointment in September.

My migraines are ruining my life. What can I do?
