Migraines and tensions headaches

I had a car accident when i was 19 and I hit my head against the windshield. They sent me home with no collar or anything. After a few years I started suffering from migraines They found out my neck is curved the opposite way plus problems of scoliosis, small cervix ernia.

I went to chiropractic docs, did acupuncture gym, special exercises but nothing improved much. I started having tensions headaches, facial pains, ear pain (like otitis) for which i ended up in an H for a week. I had ALL the tests done (MR-CAT-blood tests and many others). Nothing. So they started telling me to go see a psychologist…… which I did.

LUCKILY I found a smart doctor who does not believe that you always imagine your pains. She talked me about this cronic pain conditions due to neurological reasons. I went to see a pain management doc who gave me some drugs and now, after 5 years of no-life, I am starting to feel better. Do you think mine is a RSD case? I was becoming suicidal because of the pain!!! I had it every single day.
I am Italian living in Italy.
Good luck to everybody!!!
