Donate to Support Jaime's Journey to Migraine Relief, organized by Jaime Michele Sanders

It’s been over a year since going to Jefferson for migraine treatment. I underwent DHE and lidocaine infusions to help break the intractable migraine I’ve been living with for 16 years. The treatment was somewhat successful, giving me relief for about two weeks. However, the pain and disability returned with a vengeance along with new chronic GI issues. I could not return to Jefferson until I figured out what was going on with my digestive system. After months of testing and a year of chronic diarrhea and weight loss, I have been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea. With those symptoms now better controlled, I can finally go back to Jefferson for ketamine infusions. Like before, this is an incredibly necessary yet expensive treatment that my family and I need assistance with. This community helped me through the first inpatient visit and the outpouring of support was incredibly humbling and heartwarming. If you donated last year, THANK YOU! I am scheduled to be admitted in early August and humbly ask for financial assistance in covering the cost of travel, accommodations, and medical expenses. This next attempt at breaking this long pain cycle is something I’m praying will work. Small progress was made last year so hopefully this time around I will see longer and more sustainable results. Thank you in advance for the love, support, and encouragement. My story is below for anyone new to my journey. Hi, my name is Jaime and I’ve lived with migraine disease for 44 years. Since 2008, I have been dealing with daily migraine, or status migrainosus. Migraine is an extremely disabling neurobiological disease that affects around 40 million Americans. Status migrainosus is a migraine that lasts longer than 72 hours. Less than 1% of people with migraine have status migrainosus. This is a rare subtype of migraine disease. Imagine having migraine symptoms every day nonstop for sixteen years. It’s no way to live. Over that time, I have exhausted therapies used to treat or prevent migraine with no relief. At this point, intensive inpatient treatment is my only option. I’ll be admitted to Jefferson Methodist Hospital in Philadelphia for a week to undergo integrative ketamine infusion therapy to help finally stop this migraine attack that hasn’t gone away. This is my second attempt to break this cycle. My husband is my caretaker and source of financial support and he just cannot carry the weight of this on his own. Between travel, lodging, food, and copays it is becoming hard for us to afford to get me to Philadelphia and pay for our travel back and forth to the hospital. Being disabled and unable to work, I feel like an incredible burden to my family. Any help I can get to offset the financial burden put on my husband would be greatly appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Read more
