Hey Aveet! I'm from the Gettysburg area. I'm not sure if there are any in the Philly area.

 

The PA groups I've found are listed here:

I need your opinions. Read and comment with your head pain descriptions and how you handle it.

Hi Lillymaria, I live in HBG and no support groups in this area - many of the symptoms you experienced I also experienced and all in a matter of weeks/months - I have found to be beneficial is to try to figure out my triggers and avoid (obviously)- there are some really caring people on this site who have some good ideas - hate to say it but welcome to our little club!

Hi Lilymaria.  I am in Pittsburgh..not in your local area...but I am still here to support you, answer questions, bounce ideas, listen to you vent...and all that jazz.  Welcome to the community!  I hope you have a wonderful day.

Hello! I'm new here and so glad to find this site.  I'm live near Lancaster/Harrisburg area.  Are there any local support groups nearby?
