Guest guest Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Oops I sent this to the wrong email Warmest wishes, Barbara A , M.S., CCC-SLP Executive Director, Help Me Speak, LLC 410-442-9791 Amazing revelation!! I just had the most AHA amazing revelation!! Ever since I was 25, I have gotten migraines. Usually I get 4-6 per month. Sometimes they last up to 3 days & are moderate to extremely painful. Imitrex helps most of the time. My triggers are usually a combo of lack of sleep, changes up/down in the barometric pressure, strong smells (smoke, perfume, etc), stress, & forgetting to eat. When I started on NV in Oct I was also on my 3rd month of doxycyclene for Lyme disease in my rt knee. (I've had a torn medial meniscus & swollen knee since June). I finally stopped taking antibiotics in the beginning of Dec. For the past several yrs I have gotten a bad migraine on Christmas eve. This year, NO migraine!! I still had the usual stress & lack of sleep BUT NO migraine!?! Hmmmm.... Then about a month later in Jan I noticed that even w/the frequent snows that I hadn't gotten as many migraines--- & the 1-2 I got were very mild. Normally a drop in pressure comes w/the snow & I get a migraine. Also---no migraines during the Feb blizzards!! Well, last week I had a cyst lanced on my back & started on antibiotics as a preventive since the cyst was infected. Guess what?? I have had 4-5 small migraines & 1 huge one---since 3/16!!! So NV has taken away 95% of my migraines!! BUT when on antibiotics, NV's effectiveness is greatly reduced. Also, my sugar cravings are back. AND I did some squats last Fri (w/o wts) & on Sat, my knee was incredibly swollen---it took 3 days to resolve & is still bothering me. So....not only is the NV preventing my migraines ....it is also protecting my knee & decreasing the swelling. WOW!!! I hope u are as amazed @ this as I am!!
