If you have ever gotten a headache you know how painful they can be
. For some they just get the small pressure headache and then there are those that deal with full on migraines that can cause so much more than just a headache. You can end up nauseated and in bed for days. This can be very challenging and can also be very frustrating.
For some they are lucky and they just end up dealing with the pain for a day or two and then it is gone. Then there are those that suffer for a long time and for some it has become a permanent part of their lives. Sometimes a Tylenol can take the edge off and you can continue to function. Then there are others that have had to turn to the doctors for something much stronger so that they can just function. For others they have come to accept that they have to go to the hospital and get different treatments just to survive.
Through these different times in people's lives it can become very discouraging trying to figure out how to cope and deal with these things. For many they have decided that the only option for them is to turn to medication and the medical field to find relief.
