Sage advice for migraine sufferers

I've been suffering with migraines for over thirty years. I've had to structure my life around coping with them. Over the years I've tried so many things: medicines, diets, managing my eating and sleeping schedule, even some alternative medicine (accupuncture, biofeedback). I found ways to avoid triggers and ride out the migraines, but they were taking their toll on my life, work and family.

For me, medicine didn't help. The various preventative medicines had side effects and didn't seem to help much, and the abortive medicines were ineffective or had side effects worse than the migraines. I'd resorted to regularing my sleep schedule, avoiding my trigger foods and resigning myself to lost weekends and missed work. I'd surrendered to just living with migraines.

Last spring I had a particularly bad rash of migraines and decided to research the most recent treatments on the internet. There were some new drugs and a dietary supplement that I'd not heard of before. Armed with this information, I visited my doctor and we discussed the possibilities. He recommended one medicine but told me I'd need to take monthly blood tests to make sure it wasn't damaging my liver. This was too scary for me, so I asked him about the dietary supplement I'd read about called Migrelief. He shrugged and said go ahead.

I purchased a bottle and though the label said to wait up to 90 days for results, I saw immediate improvement. My migraines have reduced tenfold and suddenly the whole world has opened up for me. I became curious about this miracle treatment and sought out Mauskop's book. It too is a revelation.

Two hours of reading summarized everything I'd learned about managing migraines over 30 years, and more. Tips that took me years of trial and error to discover are plainly spelled out. Simple things like avoiding caffeine, sleep regulation, allergy avoidance and stress management. Lists of trigger foods to monitor. And some basics that are so simple and obvious that most Americans are ignoring them: eat better food and you'll feel better. Avoid unnecessary chemicals. Excercise. Take care of yourself.

You won't see the Magnesium-B2-Feverfew formulation promoted by doctors because doctors are driven by the pharmaceutical industry and the pharmaceutical companies can't make money off of stuff they can't patent. If Glaxo had developed this formulation and put millions of dollars behind an ad campaign, millions of migraine sufferers would be finding relief. But because it is a natural supplement most doctors will overlook it and most migraine sufferers will never know about it. And that's tragic.

Buy this book. Pick up a bottle of Migrelief (right here on Amazon). If the supplements don't help you, likely some other information in the book will. For me, this is a new lease on life.

Changed my life

I can't believe that none of my previous doctors, including several neurologists, never mentioned most of the advice I found in this remarkable book. Not only my migrianes are gone, my PMS symptoms disappeared. If I forget to take my supplements, after a few days both my migraines and PMS return.

Relief After 34 Years!

I have been a migraine sufferer for most of my life, and have explored treatment after treatment (both mainstream and alternative) to alleviate the frequency and severity. After reading this book 8 months ago, and beginning all the non-prescription supplements recommended by Dr. Mauskop, I can gratefully acknowledge that I have a tremendous reduction in the frequency of attacks! Until I had been on the supplements for 3 months, I had been getting 3-5 migraines each week, and loading up on Imitrex. I now have just a few migraines each month, which is something I had thought was an impossibility! Plus, when I do get a migraine, they tend to respond to half the dose of Imitrex I was taking in the past. In addition, while I had been aware of and adhering to the dietary changes recommended in the book for many years, and which I had discovered on my own, it was a relief to find out that there is a scientific basis to the changes I have made! This book is a must-read for any migraineur!
