Re: Acupuncture — I believe that it has been helping me, even if just a little bit. I have been receiving weekly treatments for about 6 weeks and we put an extra week between 2 appointments purposely to see how I would feel during that time. My headache pain increased - I know that this could have been from other things, but I believe that the acupuncture was showing that it has helped to some extent.

Re: Topamax — Similar to Lyrica, messed with my short-term memory.

Re: Lyrica — Messed up my short-term memory, made it difficult for me to find my words, etc. Didn't really even help my pain.

Re: Gluten-free diet — 3 months a few years ago, I was just cranky the whole time that I couldn't all the stuff I missed!

Re: Holistic nutrition — I have recently started working with a holistic nutritionist - we're looking at ingredient lists and what kinds of additives, etc are in the foods I eat to see if eliminating them helps at all.
