Mark:: Migraines 17 years (trial & 3 months post implant Occipital Neuromodulation)

In addition to treating headaches with only a Tylenol or two, Mark experienced a couple of bonus side effects after his implantation procedure. He is now off blood pressure medicine after 11 years, and his eyesight has improved despite the maculodegeneration and glaucoma.

This procedure is performed by Dr. Joshua Greenspan at the PainCare Somersworth NH facility.

I've had a constant chronic 24 hour headache since April 2004 (6 years) and bilateral Tinnitus for 5. I've had CT scan with iodine contrast which came back clear and an MRI of my inner ears. The doctors here in the UK then told me to "go home and learn to live with the pain and noise in your head".

@sof2finchy I'm so sorry about your situation. Do you know if there is anyone in the UK that performs Occipital Neuromodulation? I will ask Dr. Greenspan if he knows of anyone. Sounds like you could benefit from this procedure just like Mark has.

Thanks for your reply. No I don't know if there is anyone who does that here. We're not exactly very forward thinking when it comes to Medicine, here in the UK.
