So I found this site last night and I was really elated because I finally found people who were suffering like me. Also I found that I have had all the treatments possible. I've basically been through it all for ON treatments except nerve decompression which I'm hoping to have sometime between now and August. I'm open to suggestions on things and I've tackled a lot of meds and things and nothing has helped so anything would be really appreciated because I don't like the idea of having another surgery.

Hi Haygrr -

Glad you found us. I'm sure one of the host will be along soon with a bunch of great links from the site. I'm pretty wiped out right now can't think too straight but I wanted to welcome you.

Hi Haygrr,

Welcome to the forum!

Sounds like you have been through a lot. I don't have ON, but there are people on this forum that do.

I've found the forum to be a great form of support and also information. Take a look around the discussions and feel free to chime in!

Welcome to the forum Haygrr. I'm glad you've found us although I'm sorry you have the need to be here.

Are you seeing a migraine specialist for your migraines? There are over 100 medications that can be used for migraine prevention. You may want to discuss this with your doctor before the surgery?

Welcome again! If you have any questions, just ask away Smiler

haygrr,

Hello and welcome! Do you have Migraine and headache issues too, or is occipital neuralgia your main issue?

Please speak up if we can help. In the meantime, kick your shoes off and make yourself comfy.

Welcome again!
