My Story:
I am a 60 year old woman who had a major stroke several years ago. My major disabiltity from it is 24/7 migraines which can get severe, especially if I do much in a day. But I know a lot about treatments for them which I want to share with people. I also have right sided weakness, leg pain, difficulty swallowing, kidney failure, high blood pressure, hate to eat and no appetite from the stroke. I also have fibromyalgia, sleep apnea, acid reflux, asthma, myoclonus, osteoporosis, bletharitis, depression, rosecea, high cholesterol and hypothryoid. Did I forget anything--LOL. Married with no children.
