My 45 year old brother suffered a head injury 24 yrs. Ago. He suffered a stroke and they lost him twice. He was in a coma for nearly 2 mo's. And was left with epilepsy and aphasia(sp) and is unable to speak. He also suffers from migraine headaches. He has been suffering from a migraine continuously since june 9th. He know is complaining of double vision(to the point where he can't walk) and is now making strange movements with his hands. He has been taking to an urgent care center where is was given phenagrin injections and suppositories. He was relieved slightly but still has the pain. He was also told to try taking excedrin migraine. He is eating very little and has to be feed because he can't see. He had a ct last month and everything looked normal, and he is scheduled for another late next week. I am very concerned about him, but he lives in another state where my mother is trying to take care of him. I feel helpless and that the dr's are not treating this a something important. I fear that he has had another stroke. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
