Migraines Posted: 10-29-04 23:39pm
Hi my name is sam and I suffer from
epilepsy and my partner melanie gets
migraines a couple of times a mnth only
since she had a car accident 4 yrs ago and
damaged her lower back is it possible the
migrains she suffers are caused by that
they sit above her eyes and the back of
her head and neck as she takes painkillers
for her back they dont do much for the
migraines which make her sick hopefully
someone might have some answers as we
dont. Or could it be something else like
a form or epilepsy.? But a mild case. As
her sister had epilepsy for 5 yrs as a
result of a car accident and had to have a
metal plate put in her forhead.
Thankyou

I am so sorry that she is having so many
problems. Migraine and seizures are
sometimes linked together. Has she had an
eeg to see if more is going on?
I hope you can find answers for her. Many
seizure meds also work for migraines
