Clinical trial looks at cannabis as a potentially effective treatment for acute migraines
Allison Knigge was in elementary school when she started to experience migraines. They continued to get progressively worse as time went on, especially after the birth of her son.
"I would describe my migraines as a piercing pain. It feels like my brain is being squeezed. It causes extreme sensitivity to light and sound and horrible nausea," said Knigge. "There have been times when I have been at a pain level of 6 or higher for approximately 25 days out of the month. They impact my quality of life."
