Isn't this headline just wonderful! A simple migraine surgery is all you need. All migraine sufferers have been waiting and hoping for something - anything, to take away the pain. Think about the benefits of migraine surgery. No more canceling of meetings, airplane tickets, school educations, children christening, friends wedding, birthdays, theater visits, movie visits, guitar and piano lessons and all those things that we do together with family and friends. And don't forget all those days spending in bed with that terrible pain. Imagine no more pain.
For many migraine sufferers, this is not only a dream. It's a reality. It all started at the University Hospital in Cleveland USA in the year 2000. They started to research the connection between a muscle around the eyebrow and migraines. Previous operations were to eliminate "frown lines" due to the corrugator muscle. The follow-up research from those operations have shown significant migraine relief among those patients in the study suffering from migraine.
35 percent of the patients had total relief from migraines within a year after the operation. But will it be forever? The treatment is rather new so it's impossible to say yet.
Another 57 percent experienced a more than fifty percent less frequency and pain intensity in their migraine attacks.
In the clinical study there were 314 patients, of which 39 had a migraine headache. 31 of those patients said that their migraine attacks were no more, or that they had a considerably improvement after the migraine surgery.
So how do you know if this is something for you? This is probably the worst part to read in an article like this. All migraine sufferers all over the world have only one dream. How to get rid of their migraines. So here it is. It's not for everyone. Sorry about that. It was not for me anyway. But you can test if this is something for you. This is how you do it.
Visit your doctor and try to find out if your migraine problem has something to do with your eyebrows. For this he will probably ask you to take some Botox injections. This relaxation muscle drug will put your corrugator muscle totally out-of-order. If you find that this Botox therapy is good for your migraines, then this migraine surgery can be your final solution.
The surgical doctor will then remove your corrugator muscle and that's it. It is a simple operation and you can go home directly after the operation. Any side effects? Yes, your forehead will be blank as a new hockey rink and you will not be able to show how angry you are by frowning your forehead. Can you call that side effects? In that case, it's a pleasant problem...
