Very informative

I’ve had chronic migraines for 30 years, starting at age 14. I’ve tried everything my pain doctor recommends with no relief. Surgery is not an option for me because of the cost. My 15 year old daughter has had headaches since she was 13. I am trying to learn everything possible to help her not live with migraines like me and her grandmother.
