Sir, my fiance, we believe suffers from hemiplegic migraines. She has seen several doctors in South Florida and the treatment she recieved from Dr. Steven Wheeler was unacceptable.

At the end of July she is moving to NY and I would like your help in finding a specialist. I personally can't see her suffer through the seizures. Please sir can you help?

I would first consider seeing Dr. Bajwa in Boston (see an earlier post below) and asking him about Botox and other types of injections.  It is possible that these are not migraines, but another type of headaches.  You may also want to ask him about trying Migralex.
