Migraine and Children
I have two children who get migraines, my 9 year old son and my 13 year old daughter. So far my 11 year old daughter has not shown any signs.
These migraines are very debilitating when they occur. Becuase of their ages they can only have ibuprofen and paracetemol – they are too young for Imigran (at least in NZ they are!), although my daughter has recently started on cafergot
Is there anyone else out there who has children with migraines, and how do you as a parent cope with the feelings of helplessness etc?
I would be very interested to hear from anyone
