It Stopped My Headaches
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Iv had the daith piercing for nearly a year and my headaches/migraines have stopped completely but my fibro is still the same as before.. I don’t take any medication for my fibro as it was making me worse, no harm in trying the daith. What may work for some doesn’t for others..

I'm 19 years of age! Cannot work, have tried exercise for about 4 years now and has not helped the pain at all! My fibromyalgia pain has gotten worse!
