Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi Casey,
This isn't exactly an answer to your question in that I can't recommend any websites, but I can recommend a migraine treatment. My husband used to get cluster migraines that would lay him out for a full day. I am a graduate of an herbal medicine school and started giving him an herb, Clematis, that I learned about in school. It's the wild form of the common ornamental plant. As long as he takes it as soon as he feels a migraine coming on, it's almost always gone within 20 minutes. This herb has not been studied as far as I know, and is pretty obscure and not available in stores. Lack of studies means lack of safety data. I believe it to be quite safe, based on what I learned in school. It acts by dilated the blood vessels in the head. If you're interested in trying it, I can give you a couple of websites that sell it. You can PM me if you wish; I'm a newbie here and don't know the ethics of promoting a product (not mine!) on the boards. It has made my husband's life a whole lot easier.
