So I woke up with a headache one morning when I was about 31. I was up in Flag for a week-long workshop. Went into town and got some Tylenol or something. Headache didn't go away. It was right behind my right eye. Long story short, saw opthalmalogists, neurologists, pain docs, had acupuncture, physical therapy, used a TENS unit, had this Chinese thing where they put these little tiny beads on your ear. Have been on every medication there is. Even went to a well known neurologist in Phoenix who is a well-known headache specialist.

I have horrible headaches around my period. Am I OK? Do most women get headaches like these? Or am I just one of a lucky few?

TUESDAY, May 27 (HealthDay News) -- The best treatment for vertigo is the easiest and quickest one, according to a new American Academy of Neurology guideline.
The guideline says many cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo -- an inner ear disorder that's a common cause of dizziness -- can be treated using a simple series of head and body movements performed by a doctor or therapist while the patient is seated on a bed or table.

WEDNESDAY, May 21 (HealthDay News) -- Emergency treatment with two different anti-clotting drugs doesn't help much when someone who suffers a heart attack can't get a quick artery-opening procedure, new research shows.
On a brighter note, a third anti-clotting agent does improve results of such a procedure after a heart attack, another study finds.

I am a 29 year old woman who has had several health problems - nothing major, but big enough to effect my daily life and quality of life. However, recently I was introduced to Reliv, a complete nutritional supplement, by a friend. I have only been on it for two months, but already my constant headaches are gone, my acid reflux is gone, and my skin has cleared up. Also I went to the doctor for blood work to see how it has affected my thyroid and that has improved and I have lost 20lbs in these last two months!! That is huge for me!

THURSDAY, April 17 (HealthDay News) -- Women who have weekly migraines are at an increased risk for stroke compared to those with few or no migraines, a new study finds.
On the other hand, those with less frequent migraines may have an increased risk of heart attack, the same team of researchers report.
The findings, to be presented Thursday at the American Academy of Neurology annual meeting in Chicago, point to different mechanisms linking migraines to distinct cardiovascular troubles, experts say.
