Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 I am from Australia so do not know much about Florida and the weather. Your migraines could be caused due to cold weather and if you suffer asthma as these are a medical family. Or you could be suffering hay fever which can cause migraines. Dawn From: Ernie Carr The other day I was reading a post about seasonal Migraines. Now I,ve had migraines for 29 yrs off and on mostly on. But the worst have always been in Dec, Jan. and Feb like wright now. Never any reason that could be nailed down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Ernie, Are you taking any Migraine preventives such as Verapamil or amytriptiline ? I found that they didnt stop the migraines altogether but they became much less severe and were shorter. a The other day I was reading a post about seasonal Migraines.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi Ernie, I am so sorry you have to live with chronic migraines! I occasionally get migraines, but I live with extremely painful headaches that cause my blood pressure to raise so much from the pain that I will pass out. I have an appointment with the pain management clinic to get occipital injections. I am hoping they help!
