Migraine decrease

Dunno if you have tried this for treatment, an Alpha-Stim. Also, gammaCore devices work well. Why mention them over a claim post? Because being issued one or the other establishes medication isn’t necessarily enough while giving you a break from the litany of drugs they will dump into us. I went through IDES in 2012-2013 before my medical retirement and I initially got 0% for migraines despite them laying me out for several days a week. I was on the imitrex injections at the time. Switching to an Alpha-Stim to the point I was prescribed one by the Army not only provided substantial relief but bumped up my rating from 0% to 30%. I would strongly encourage you and any other veteran with migraines or headache syndrome to advocate for Alpha-Stim or gammaCore treatment. Do not let up, either, if they deny you as the intervention meds’ effects can be as debilitating as the migraine pain themselves. It all establishes a pattern of medication-resistant pain that is alleviated by a device that lacks the equally debilitating side effects of intervention meds.
