Although she finds it mildly beneficial, she complained of intense gastric pain while taking ibuprofen. Heather is wary of supplementing with any form of acetaminophen as she felt “loopy,” at one instance which she did not attribute to any other underlying cause (i.e. fever, medication). Heather also has an aversion to opiates, as she does not tolerate the euphoria and confusion while being on them. The option of bupivicaine +/- corticosteroid was presented to treat her SI join pain and to produce a NSAID sparing effect. However, she is afraid of needles therefore this option was not pursued. Rather a trial of Tramadol immediate release, at a dose of 25-50 mg PO at bedtime was provided to Heather. Her SI joint pain was reduced by 30% (9/10 to 6/10) within 30 minutes of starting Tramadol, without any noticeable side effects. There was no effect on her chronic daily headache pain. She started taking tramadol immediate release around the clock, and wore off after 4 hours. Therefore a prescription for Zytram XL (Tramadol CR) was provided to decrease her baseline pain and address end of dose pain. In addition to she was provided an additional repeat of immediate release tramadol for breakthrough pain. Lastly she discontinued use of ibuprofen as her pain relief from Tramadol was

Epidemiological research has determined that headache disorders are the most prevalent of all neurological conditions; and have demonstrated that the psychosocial impact of headaches is significant (Shapiro & Goadsby, 2007; Smitherman, McDermott, & Buchanan, 2011). Additionally, migraine is the most prevalent disabling neurological condition which disproportionately affects approximately 17-18% of women (nearly three times more common than in men) during their prime productivity years (Graves, 2006; Shapiro & Goadsby, 2007). Chronic headaches, especially those severe in intensity, result in loss of productivity (i.e. missed days of school or work and/or related activities) and account for an estimated 10 million primary care provider office visits per year (Curry & Green, 2007).

Patient is a 33-year-old Latin American female who states that she started having milder "normal" headaches at age six or seven years old. Menarche was at age 13, but that did not change the quality or frequency of her headaches. She was pregnant twice without any change in the headaches during pregnancy and in the postpartum periods. She has never been on birth control pills. Her headaches started to become menstrual related three to four months ago. Prior to that, her headaches were mild and maybe once a month and not associated with her menses. They would be pan cephalic, stabbing with no systemic or neurological symptoms. The severity was 3/10. They did worsen with exertion. When winter came, her husband was

According to Key Facts and Figures about Migraine (2014), migraines are the most common neurological condition in the developed world, even more prevalent than diabetes, epilepsy and asthma combined.

Tension Type Headaches (TTH) are common in clinical practice. Tension type headaches lasts minutes to weeks. The pain is usually pressing or tightening in quality, mild to moderate in intensity, and bilateral in location, but does not exacerbate by the physical activity.

One basic inquiry regarding headache medicine and different pharmaceuticals is, "The manner by which does it know how to get to where the torment is?" The answer is that it doesn't! When you take headache medicine, it disintegrates in your stomach or the following some portion of the digestive tract, the small digestive system, and your body assimilates it there. At that point it goes into the circulation system and it experiences your whole body. In spite of the fact that it is all around, it just works where there are prostaglandins being made, which incorporates the region where it harms.

Migraine is a painful headache that comes with recurrent throbbing affecting usually one side of the head. It occurs with symptoms like nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and sensitivity to light and sound. According to Allexa Hammond and Maura Holcomb, MD, migraine has five stages. In the first stage (also called Prodromal), the patient will experience depression, a stiff neck, and cognitive dysfunction. The second stage (the aura) affects the visual (scotomata) area, sensation (paresthesia of the hands, arms and face), and cognitive capability. In the third stage (the peak stage), the patient will undergo throbbing pain, nausea, anxiety, irritability, impairment in concentration, and photophobia (extreme sensitivity to light). The fourth stage is the resolution of the headache for several hours, possibly aroused by vomiting or deep sleep. The last stage is the recovery stage; the patient will feel fatigue, become depressed and sometimes have a euphoric mood. Not much about the cause of migraine is known, but genetics and environmental factors may play a role. It may be caused by changes in the brainstem, or imbalances in brain chemicals like serotonin, which helps regulate pain in our nervous system. Jimenez Diaz and associates have indicated that, during the migraine attack, there is a release of a substance more stable than acetylcholine, which they term S.A.C. acetylcholinelike substance. They also conclude that the normal choline acetylate system is different in

These therapies have proved to be of much benefit in supporting the normal healing course of the body. Even though there are many modern alternative remedies, with different beliefs, all of them operate under some common principles. One of these principles is that the body has the capacity to heal naturally and maintain stability (Paquette, 2000). The other one is that adverse health conditions can occur as a result of factors emanating from mind, emotions and the body. Alternative medicine, according to Goldberg, Trivieri and Anderson, (2002), focuses on determining the chief cause of a particular condition, and dealing with the whole person rather that concentrating on symptoms. If a person pays close attention to his/her health he/she can contribute to his/her wellbeing. Alternative medicine holds firmly to the principle that one treatment cannot be used for all people even though they may be suffering from the same condition. Each and every person as per alternative medicine has distinct bodily, mind and spiritual make up (Goldberg, Trivieri and Anderson, 2002).

There is a distinction between strength and potency of a treatment in homeopathic medicine. A treatment is not always believed to be stronger or better if it is more potent, since each individual’s reaction is different to the
