    It’s not what the world takes away from you that matters, it’s what you do with what you have left that counts

    Every day we wake up and have a choice...smile (even in the times of most adversity) or let things bring you down until all you can do is frown. Feeling sorry for yourself gets you nowhere, making the most of what you have builds character, confidence and gives us a chance for a reason to smile. Every day I have to make this choice, I pride myself in having a positive attitude and when I find myself focusing on all the things that have brought me down, instead being thankful that I survived it all...but there are some days when I fail...its a lifelong journey and every day that starts with a smile is a success. Some days it takes part of the day of allowing myself to suffer that I then can hopefully shift to remembering that I am thankful for all the blessings I have in my life to be grateful for! I choose to smile today!

    When do you know it’s time to try a new migraine medication?

    Switching from one medication to another, or adding a new medication to your treatment plan, may be necessary throughout your treatment journey for migraine.

    If you are experiencing ongoing symptoms, intolerable or unpleasant side effects, or even new-to-you symptoms, it may be time to discuss changing your treatment plan with your doctor or care team.

    If you have modified your treatment plan, when did you know it was time to try a new medication? Share your experiences and advice for others in the comments below.

    Are there any questions or topics you wish your neurologist would discuss with you in your appointments?

    Sometimes you just want your neurologist or headache specialist to ask how you’re REALLY doing, or you want them to check in on something you mentioned during your last appointment.

    Are there any questions or topics you wish your doctor would proactively discuss with you? A conversation you wish they’d start because you’re too nervous or afraid to raise it?

    If you feel comfortable sharing, add your questions in the comments section below or read through others.

    Hi, my name is unexpectedproblems. I'm here because I have been Experiencing chronic head pressure and dizziness along with many other symptoms, the head pressure never goes away it just gets a little better or worse, it felt like I had the flu for almost a month and then this is what I was left with, it has been two whole years.. I am only 22, this has ruined my life. Many doctors have no real answers for me I have found one that is doing SOT and craniopathy because he says my neck isn’t right so it’s pushing on nerves. i am really worried this is going to be my life and if it is.. I can’t do that.
