i trust my chiro - but i also had family who'd been seeing him for ages and trusted him - plus he also does massage and accupuncture - so isn't just a bone cruncher - he takes a more hollistic approach.. he has a myotherapist working with him, so if it's muscular he gets her involved (at no extra cost)
i will be getting him to check DD next time i see him - she got stuck in the birth canal and was pulled back out rather roughly during c/s so i want to make sure there are no dramas from that for her
My mum suffers from abdominal migraines (she has never had a headache migraine, although I was prone to them as a teenager). She doesn't get them so much anymore, by far her biggest trigger is stress. They were at their peak when she was going through the divorce with my dad but that was many years ago. TBH, there has never been much she can do for them, except ride it out, and try not to have too much stress in her life.
I'm sorry I can't help beyond that, I hope they can find something to help your DD.
Thanks for your repiles. I was taking her to an Osteopath for migraines last year when the Dr suggested we medicate her for them. The Osteo has worked really well for her. Her last appt was last November, she had the odd migraine between then and a few weeks ago when she started getting sore stomachs combined with headaches, she says they're different to the migraine headaches she gets. She was off school for 4 days with an episode last week so I thought i'd better get on to it.
From what I've read on the net it doesn't seem that the abdominal migraines are coupled with headaches, which is what she's gettting. Is there anything she can take for the abdominal migraines (if that's waht they are) to relieve the pain? They just seem to cripple her and pain relief doesn't seem to relieve her.
