Your propensity to have full on migraine attacks was determined before you were born. Almost seven years research at Oxford University has established that successful treatment and dismissal of these attacks can be successfully achieved by the use of a form of dialogue discovered by chance and developed in trial and error over several years. In scientific terms this is prosodic language and signalling working upon our hidden mechanical mechanisms. This works for seven out of eight users and is fully documented elsewhere at this site in a Clinical Study Report.
Migraine Risk
Make no mistake, migraine is a potentially serious risk to health and wellbeing. First and foremost is the physical risk from having a full on migraine attack at the wrong time. For example driving a car in heavy traffic when the risk of losing control, or visual awareness of fast moving vehicles could lead to an accident. Similarly when alighting from vehicles in the roadway and in the presence of other close and fast moving traffic. The risks from prescribed or over the counter painkillers is no less alarming. Opiates can lead to dulled senses and poor memory around safe doses, leading to over dosing and loss of life as a result. Many reported instances of harm occurring from these means lead to the view that resort to pain killers in the absence of any definitive medical help from medications is a poor choice and best avoided. The possibility of targeted help from drugs or pills has recently taken a step backwards with the withdrawal of erenumab a new and much vaunted remedy now withdrawn by NICE.
Paradoxical
There are many things that are paradoxical about migraines; School teachers commonly have migraines at week ends, others have migraines following the completion of demanding projects, or work periods. This fits the notion that migraine sufferers are their own worst enemies in the sense that they are often hard taskmasters who set themselves higher standards and then beat themselves up when they fail. The other side of the coin of course, is that this is not a defined medical condition and that it is a mindset or a way of thinking.
History
I initiated the Clinical Study in September 2013 following a major report in the New Scientist about studies in the USA into persistent headache and low mood amongst students at Virginia Tech College Blacksburg, Virginia. Successful treatment involved the use of Ultrasound and researchers pointed out this would mean that future research would be slow because of the potentially harmful nature of Ultrasound. It was my belief that a personal routine I had found was virtually the same mechanism and I asked Oxford University to examine this.
