hey Tara, would you mind telling me how much your surgery cost??? I have been suffering with migraines since I was 5, and I am 24 now. I called Dr. Guyurons office and they are sending me a migraine chart to fill out. so hopefully I can get the surgery soon. Hope your migraines are still gone. :O)

I am a patient who has gone through the surgery that Dr. Guyuron offers, and it has changed my life. It was a hard surgery to recover from, but my life now is so much different from the life I was living. I am 25 years old and suffered from debilitating migraines for the last 12 years; they were constant daily migraines that I rarely had a break from. A local doctor in Salt Lake recommended Dr. Guyuron to me and I went to Cleveland and met with the doctor, two weeks later I went back and had the surgery. My health insurance would not pay for this surgery. It was done as an out-patient procedure, and I had to stay in Cleveland for about 5 days after surgery to make sure there was no complications.

I am permantly disabled from daily migraines. My insurance denied the botox treatments and I am not hopeful they would cover this as well. But I dont go a day with out being in pain. I cry. I vomit and do not live a life worthy of living. I am very disheartened to be this way at 41. I have had these migraines since I was 20 or even younger. Its been so long I cant remember. I have done everything within my power to not have these migraines to have a life with my family. Its not fair to them or me. I have gone to every doctor my insurance allows and they could not heal me. I even went to the mayo clinic in florida from kentucky and they told me to find a pain control specialist. That was not the answer because then all that happened is getting dependent on narcotics. But what choice is there? I dont have the funds for this treatment and I have stopped the narcotics and just suffer daily. and when i cant take it any more i go to the ER. How much does it cost? There must be some compassion someway to be healed. Is there any trial clinics for this procedure to be included in cost free for the patient? I know I cant afford it when we are paycheck to paycheck because of medical bills as it is meeting our catastrophic caps every year and are still paying from years behind. I am truely grateful to have seen this on The Doctors show but also saddened because i know I cant get the help I do badly need.Please help me if you can. Thank you honestly.

Where in B.C.or Kelowna B.C. can you have this done.I can have 10 or many more of these headaches each and every month.I now have a hernia from the vomiting with the headaches along with other symptoms.We that have these headaches need help in Canada. What would the cost be in Canada or if you have to go to the States would our health care pay for it.If not do you have a cost of how much it would be in Dr. Gahman”s as an out patient. Thanks I am so glad I saw this on the Doctors Channel.

Hello, I have just come across your article in the news paper and am thrilled to read it. My mother has one of the most intense cases of headaches I have ever seen. I dont remember a time I saw her without a dibilitating headache. We have tried all sorts of medication and Doctors but to no Avail. I was wondering when this surgery would become available to general public and is there a chance that this surgery would be available in India too. I am in dire need of help for my mother and would give anything to see her live a normal life for once. My Mother is 50 now. Please help us with any advice or Information regarding this breakthrough. Thank You from my heart, RH.
