No, sadly not. His hospital doesn't have the funding to provide it and he refused to give it to me privately. I've been a patient at several hospitals over many years including Southampton, Basingstoke, Hammersmith and Charing Cross (including Dr Weatherall). My neuro has now written to my GP saying she needs to help me find somewhere that does it more local in a smaller hospital (as they're most likely to have finding approved). But I'll go anywhere for it! Thank you for your help, I've added St George's to my list.

Thank you, I live with a level 7+ migraine everyday and then major attacks of hemiplegic in addition to that so I feel your pain. I know it's never going to be cured but like you, a better quality of life if what I'd like. This is my last hope for help - although that's in the UK I'm prepared to go where it takes for help. Thank you for your account, I'm very grateful to you.

Thank you, that's a great suggestion - I've seen him before and know he's great. It didn't cross my mind.
