  • Unless you have recently sustained any head trauma, and the last one was normal, chances are that getting the test done again will reveal nothing. You can always request this be done if you are worried or the symptoms you are experiencing are worse than previously experienced. But there are several reasons that could be causing your migraines, such as hormones, food, flashing lights, stress, etc. If the scan comes back normal you should see a doctor that specializes in migraines, either a neurologist or pain management doctor. The key to migraines is to prevent them as best you can, either by avoidance of triggers or with medication, if necessary. A good migraine specialist will be able to get you onto a regimen that will work for you to decrease the frequency and severity of migraines, and also get you an appropriate abortive medication for when you get one.

    If you had one 2 years ago that was normal it may be normal again. There is no harm in getting another, but I would keep looking for more anwers.
    One thing I recently learned about was heavy metal and other toxins in the body that can cause these syptoms. There’s some doctors that test for these things and can help you get rid of the problem.
    One clinic I know of that does this does chelation therapy to treat it. The kind of doctor may be an environmental doc? Toxic chemicals in the body may be one cause but it may not be your problem but probably worth looking into.
    Otherwise, keeping my neck alignment and posture good I believe helps me prevent headaches and I know my chiropractor has helped people with vertigo. He recommends this pillow which helps with migraines and neck posture: http://www.brandnamepetsupplies.com/store/dog/fleaandtick/index.htm "

    I don’t like cats at all…I much prefer dogs. Dogs look up to you and treat you better…cats are usually less respectful and loving. Plus you can do stuff with your dog…play with it, teach it etc. Cats are just sorta there…you can pet them…but you can pet a dog too. I don’t like cats, they smell.
