I have had migraines for as long as I can remember. I have been on many different meds to ether catch them before they start, or try to get rid of them once I have one. I went and seen my primary Dr. yesterday, and now she is thinking that I may have Trigeminal Neuralgia, and she put me on Tegretol. I hat to say this but I am hoping that this is what it is, and the meds take care of it.
