Tough Headband Men's Neck Gaiter

I have been dealing with chronic migraines with aura since I was in my early teens. If I do not intervene when a migraine starts; it could last for days, weeks, or even months. Last fall, my go to medication for intervention stopped working. My neurologist tried to find a new one that I could tolerate, and that would work. We tried several different medications over the course of a few months. Nothing was working. My migraines started lasting longer and longer each time, breaking only after weeks of medication. In January, I woke up with a migraine that was a lot worse than most of the ones I'd had before. Unlike the others, this one didn't finally go away after a few weeks of medication. It persisted, grew worse, and resisted any attempt at treatment. Inflammation plays a large role in chronic migraines. My neurologist suggested Botox as a treatment, but it was taking weeks to get insurance approval. In the meantime, he suggested that I used cold therapy to alleviate some of the pain. I had a few smaller ice packs leftover from a wisdom teeth removal a few years ago, and found that they worked well when pressed against each of my trigger points (two at base of head, two right above my temples). But trying to keep them in place was impossible. I improvised for a while by using an old headband, but it wasn't really big enough to hold them properly. Luckily, the botox approval came through, and I was able to start the treatment. The botox has helped to significantly reduce the intensity of the pain and my other symptoms. But the ice packs still come in handy on the rare days that the pain gets out of control. Looking for a better way to keep them in place when I do use them, I ordered one of these headbands to try. I have used it twice this week already, and it works wonderfully. It is just tight enough to hold the packs on my head and provide a little pressure, but not tight enough to be uncomfortable. I have started telling everybody I know to get one of these and a few small ice packs, and to keep them on hand for any time they get a headache. I go back into the neurologist for a check up next week, and I plan on telling him too. More migraine sufferers need to try this. It's incredibly effective and affordable; and, unlike other treatments, it has no side effects. If anybody is interested in trying this, here is a link to ice packs like the ones I use: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XM1JI48?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01
