		<description>I found this information about the deaths and breathing problems brought on by Botox.

&quot;In February 2008, the FDA announced that it is currently conducting a safety review of Botox after receiving information about adverse reactions to it, including breathing problems and some deaths. It’s important to note that the deaths involved off-label use of Botox in a treatment for children with cerebral palsy. The FDA is still reviewing these adverse events and will provide updates as they become available. &quot;

		<description>Each year, 90% of men and 95% of women will have at least one headache.  They’re common, you see.  Headache experiences, on the other hand, are anything but common. Each person’s headache experience is individual to him or her.  No one has the same combination of pain, frequency, impairment or triggers, according to headache experts.  

Now, the National Headache Foundation has developed an online tool that allows each individual to become a student of his/her own headaches and to seek and find resources that will be especially helpful, given his or her experience.  The online tool, “Headache U,” is available at www.headaches.org  and prompts visitors to provide information about frequency, severity and treatment.  The answers provided then lead the individual to resources specific to the experiences described.  “Headache U”  was  developed under the guidance of an advisory panel of physicians who specialize in headache care, and people with headache.  Headache U is being launched during National Headache Awareness Week, June 7-13.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t normally post comments promoting migraine cures or anything that promises a cure or unsubstantiated claims. Dr. Hyson&#039;s remedy may work for some patients, but his claim of clinically proven is weak. He claims that his research has been published in peer-reviewed journals, but he only offers an article published in a so-called journal that is essentially a marketing tool for various medical products and ads in popular magazines. 
His research is severely flawed because his procedure didn&#039;t follow the standard randomized, double-blind study. He also had the participants to 

&lt;blockquote&gt; They were advised to also take their customary oral
and/or parenteral medications.

How, then, does he know that his mask is responsible for the results? In the future, I will only publish comments promoting a &quot;cure&quot; or &quot;remedy&quot; if, and only if, they undergo standard double-blind studies that are published in peer-reviewed journals.</description>

		<description>Tara,
Thanks for the comment. I was rear-ended 4 years ago and I believe that my migraines got worse. I am happy that triptans work for you, but a measly 4 pills a month would not cut it for me! It would last one week. I am blessed that I am allowed 12.</description>

		<description>Debbie,
I&#039;m so glad I found your blog and I hope you are doing well. I have always had migraines, but due to a car accident, they are now worse. The accident-related ones I get are due to a strain in my back, up my neck, and directly down to my eye. It&#039;s hard in addition to the other chronic pain and I am concerned that I will lose my job.

Anyway, thanks for writing about this. Triptans work best for me, but even with Imitrex being generic now, my horrible health insurance only allows for four pills per month. My doctor now has me on the generic Topamax, but I just read that it can also interfere with the birth control pill. It&#039;s always something!

Anyway thanks again. 
Tara</description>

		<description>Lynne is a St. Louis friend of mine. We grew up together. Please spell her name correctly if you are going to write about her. Her last name is.......Greenberg....Not Greenburg. It just bothers me because there is something disrespectful about getting her name wrong when it is on the cover of her book.</description>
