[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 322646"] The only thing I can think of is to get multiple opinions, preferably from those who specialize (usually a neurologist) who have an interest in headaches/migraines. There are headache clinics, like the Diamond Headache Clinic that are well known for treating headaches. Perhaps she needs an MRI of areas of the brain, head and/or neck that are not being viewed currently. Her recent flu shot would be of concern to me. Even if it is a reaction to the flu shot, sometimes headaches get a "foothold" and it is very hard to break that cycle of pain. It might take a very strong IV of a narcotic to get it to break. Would agree that a journal of symptoms and medications tried is a great idea. And would encourage the family to keep pushing forward with specialists, even if it meant travelling to find one. Sometimes a multitude of things can contribute to headaches/migraines (just something to keep in the back of your mind). How sad that she is going through this painful ordeal. I hope the family can find the right medical expert and/or team that will provide answers. [/QUOTE]
