Herbal cure for Migraines

A topic much discussed with not so much patients, but yet with friends and neighbors. The cause is much still very mysterious, ranging from dilation or constriction of blood vessels, to inflammatory mediators on the dura. There are some that believe there is even a direct correlation to tension headaches, cured every three months by relieving shots of Botulinum toxin to the occipital muscles.

Whatever may be the cause, the cure can be quite ranging as well. Quite and dark rooms, sleep, Imitrex, Excedrin, antidepressants, the aforementioned Botox etc. Well, there is one more added to the mix. It's an herbal called Feverfew

As I was perusing the news headlines, I ran across an excerpt from the Dr. Oz show. His researchers had found an herbal medicine which when taken upon the arrival of the migraine, has been proven or strongly suggested to reduce and if not eliminate the migraine altogether.

Now having erred on other topics such as Visiline for oral cancer screening, I'm just a bit skeptical. However the price is right. Where one pill of Imitrex has the same cost of one bottle of this Feverfew, it might just be worth a self clinical trial for those plagued with this atrocious problem.
