I produced this during college. 2002. At the time I was studying graphic arts and it dawned on me that I might now have the skills to show the world what migraineurs see.

I don't know if others on here have tried acupuncture but if anyone has I'd love to hear your experience.

Limited Success 4 Years LaterNEW by: Anonymous
I tried acupuncture 3 years ago. It worked. Not permanently but I gained 6 whole months without a migraine. At first I thought I had been "cured" but then after the 6 months they came back- albeit slowly.
My experience during the acupuncture was a feeling of heat that ran up my back to my neck to the top of my head then down the front of my neck into my chest and it ended right about where the solar plexus would be. I actually broke out in a sweat and wondered if the acupuncturist had turned the room heat too high. When I left I felt absolutely nothing different. It was over the 6 months that I realized my migraines had stopped even when storms came.
I'm a military veteran so I am going back for more treatment. Its taken me nearly 2 years to win this fight with the V.A.

The intrusion of the migraine is really illustrated well.
