Carolyn J. replied:
I don't know of any psychiatrist but if you need emotional support while you and your son are going through this I recommend Arthur Harrison at First United Methodist Church or their new Pastor (Pastor Byron I think is his name). When you go through a rough emotional time it's very helpful to have someone to talk to. I'm sure any of the local Church's have excellent Pastors. Just reach out. You don't have to face this alone. Praying that you and your son get through this quickly.

Sondra E. replied:
I have had status migraines since I was 9. I am 44 now. I do Botox and nerve blocks for Trigeminal Neuralgia and C2 SNRB and CESI. For meds I have tried all the triptans, Midrin, Cambia, Diclofenac, Toradol, Zofran (nausea), and found for me that the best is DHE or Dihydroergotamine Injections I give myself. It comes in a nosespray called Migranal which is pretty $$$ or you can try Sprix which is Toradol NS but it burns like acid. Stadol also helps. The Daith piercing has very mixed results and I do not recommend it. An MRI will tell you if you have a chiari malformation or tumor or other neurological contributing factor but most often the cause is barometric pressure changes or dietary (MSG, nitrates, nitrites, theobromine in dark chocolates, tomatoes, dairy, gluten, and many others. Best to keep a migraine diary. Too little sleep/too much sleep, stress, not eating, dehydration, rebound headaches from narcotics, all can contribute. I see Dr Swillie and Dr Strong at Grandview. Dr Diane Counce is the best! Dr Michael Gibson is great for pain mgmt, also Dr Xavier at UAB. You need a team of specialists and your primary. Best of luck!!! Find what works for YOU!

1 st off don't just go to a "back doctor" find a good neuro doc! But if you see a neurosurgeon that's what you'll most likely get surgery, (surgeon) Ive had 9 back and neck surgeries, 3 level, and a 2 level. Dr. Martin Jones at Brookwood is real good, but I would exaust every conservative treatment avenue before opting for surgery!
