Los Angeles: "From 2/12/98 to 2/21/98, I had migraine headaches that did not respond to normal migraine headache medicine. I saw my neurologist today. He suffers from migraines too. He said that he had a flare up around the same time and that he saw over 20 of his migraine patients with similar flare-ups, many of whom said their migraine medicine had stopped working. He thinks El Nino may be the cause and is waiting to see what happens when the next storm hits. He thinks it may be changes in barometric pressure, but isn't sure. He thought it may be allergies, but nothing is in bloom at this time. (However, I heard of a television report which stated that because of all the rain, the desert is in full bloom.)"--Cheryl D.
