This article infuriated me. I know how I was treated as a child with pain and it wasn’t very different, but I feel like the practices have become worse as an adult with pain, not better. You have to fight for everything, and that is unacceptable to me, but for anyone to denounce the pain of a child just plain rattles my cage!
I wonder if this is also going to be made available in North American and how quickly we might expect it. Three years is too long for many of us.

There are some good idea in here, and some that I find baffling, but to each their own. I highly recommend having more than water on hand, as a great many people respond to caffeine. Also, keep some quality snacks on hand because many of us become ravenous just prior to or immediately after an attack.

The American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association is dedicated to the eradication of autoimmune diseases and the alleviation of suffering and the socioeconomic impact of autoimmunity through fostering and facilitating collaboration in the areas of education, public awareness, research, and patient services in an effective, ethical and efficient manner.
AARDA is the only national nonprofit health agency dedicated to bringing a national focus to autoimmunity, the major cause of serious chronic diseases. Approximately 50 million Americans, 20 percent of the population or one in five people, suffer from autoimmune diseases. Women are more likely than men to be affected; some estimates say that 75 percent of those affected–some 30 million people–are women. Still, with these statistics, autoimmunity is rarely discussed as a women’s health issue.

New Jersey hospital emergency room becomes first in U.S. to end use of opioid painkillers
By all means if you’re in any form of pain, do NOT go to this hospital’s ER or the hospital itself. If they cannot properly treat you and are choosing to see everyone as addicts, then they don’t need your money or money from your insurance provider. If I hurt myself or need to be treated in any state, let it NOT be anywhere near this dump! Pain patients aren’t addicts!
I’ve never been given 100 Percocet in one shot for ANYTHING, and that includes broken bones. I don’t feel I deserve to be labeled due to negligence or genuine addictions that escalate.

Has this worked for anyone for this particular type of pain?

I don’t know about most people, but I do not blame my triggers on the cause of my migraines. The fact of the matter is, I do not know why I suffer from migraines, except that they run in my family and that alone is enough for most doctors to diagnose it as “family history”.
