Chronic Intractable Migraine: A Case Study
Description
Migraines can be extremely debilitating for patients and can have a great impact on their physical, mental and emotional well-being. The role of musculoskeletal disorders and neuropsychiatric abnormalities in the presentation and frequency of migraines is under continuous debate. We report the case of a 44-year-old female who presents with a 33-year history of chronic, unmanageable migraines accompanied by a variety of comorbidities and ailments. As there may be a causative relationship between these varying conditions, this case study discusses the possibility of developing a standardized, systemic approach to the diagnoses and treatment of chronic migraines.
